Ana is FOUR!

My babiest girl just got a little older.

Four year old Ana celebrated with a splash at the outdoor pool. Tia and I are getting pretty good at hosting the outdoor party - premaking/precutting sandwiches this time. And of course - ice coffee for the grown ups. 

I did however both drop the cake and write "Happy Bithday" on it. It was a rough morning. Planning parties with a pump requiring newborn in tow can be a little rough. But we pulled it off and it was SO fun and most of all - low key. Ana had a great time, especially once Luke got there, and even received one little hand made present from another bestie - Eli. These kiddos - so sweet!

Happy Bi-R-thday sweet girl. Ana you are the best cheerleader I know and so, so beautiful. We love how you champion others and are so wiling to join in their fun/play. We're praying good boundaries for you regarding this. You use -words- so well now, and honey you balance life in between a big sister and little brothers so well. You are perfect for the job. May Jesus continue to speak to you about Himself and reveal mysteries to you - especially in all those quiet playtimes you carve out for yourself. Thanks for being such a bundle of fun. You are my favorite little four year old. 

Present excitment!
