Our Sweet 5-Year-Old
Sweet Mazy Grace, you are FIVE! You are incredibly thrilled to be a whole hand! This was the first time you were actually excited for me to take your yearly picture and couldn’t wait to choose something to wear. You have grown in every way this past year, not only in height, but even more so, your faith in God. Your prayers, your faith, your view of life, challenges me. You pray and believe God will heal. You so compassionately pray for others and care how others are doing. You giggle easily, hug often, and your smile is contagious. You love to joke around, explore God’s creation, and you don’t take anything little for granted.
You have grow in confidence, thanks to school. Though we are sad that you won’t be able to finish your preschool year of school at school, we know that what you have learned has made you into who you are today. You love to pretend and read books on how to be a princess, according to your creativity. You are still obsessed with dogs and now you have your best friend, as you so rightly call her, Maggie. As you often say, “Maggie’s the best gift EVER!” You love Jesus, can’t wait to go to heaven to see Him, and love singing! Hearing you say how much you love your daddy, mommy, and our family, melts our hearts as your parents. We sometimes can’t believe God chose US to be your parents and how all of those years of praying, God has answered them with YOU.
