Our first baby turned 9 yrs old last week. It's hard to believe it's almost been a decade since we first became parents. God blessed us with a good baby and a sweet girl; Olivia is a loving and happy girl with a sweet spirit. Olivia loves reading this blog, so in her honor....nine facts about the birthday girl:
We are so grateful for:
1. Olivia's sweet spirit and her love for God and desire to learn more about Him and His will for her life.
2. Olivia's love for her baby brother and sister...they (Olivia and Maxwell) have their bad moments, but play so well together most of the time!
3. Olivia's passion for learning, we are so thankful we don't have to nag her to do her homework or study!!
4. Olivia's passion for food! We've never worried she's not eating enough...I wonder who she inherited that appetite from?
5. Olivia's curiosity...at least 2 or 3 times a week I direct her to her dad to answer a random question.
6. Olivia's love for writing...we hope this continues, we tell her it's important to be a good writer!
7. Her love for reading...no idea where she got this from!
8. Olivia's love for school! Her teacher recently told me that she is all business in class and very serious...then a chatterbox during lunch and on the playground!
9. Olivia's ability to see the best in people...one of her lastest quotes, "Don't judge a book by it's cover!". Such a good heart, we pray she'll always see the best in people!
Mommy and Daddy love you sweet girl! We are soo proud of you and thankful that God blessed us with you nine years ago!
