Katie turns 5!!!

Katie turned 5 on November 22nd. She was sooo excited to have a glow-in-the-dark party at Pump It Up! Katie is such a sweet girl and a GREAT big sister. She loves her friends and any chance to do anything social. Preschool is her favorite times of the week and when she is not there, she likes to pretend to be at preschool, doing art projects, writing her name and making grocery lists for me.

Katie on her new pillow pet with all her presents. She was so happy on her special day!!
We just love having her in our family. I feel certain the she was meant to come first and has a great talent in caring for her 2 little sisters. She has a huge imagination and a really big heart. Next comes kindergarten.......if her Mom will let her go!

She is so cute! I went to D.C. last week and I stayed right next to where we lived back in the day. It was such a fun memory! I hope that things are good for you guys!

I hope that Katie and the twins liked their gifts from Grandma Vicki and Grandpa Steve. They would have loved to see them, and hear from them, but right now the best they can do is send little gifts. I hope you can find it in your hearts to understand that.
my best to all of you,
