MY BABY IS FIVE TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today my oldest is five...I cannot believe it. She has grown in so many ways in the past year. It's hard to believe that she's the same little girl who, what seems like yesterday, would scream and cry when we sang Happy Birthday to her. I *think* this is the first year it didn't happen. She can be such an amazing, intense little girl. She loves with all her heart and then some. She does everything with such emotion. She sings with all her might, she argues with all the gusto of an adult and never takes no for an answer. (although shes FINALLY learning that she doesn't have a choice..he he) She can memorize a song faster and better than most adults I know and she has become a pro on Disney.com, Noggin.com and Starfall. She is funniest when she's not even trying and she makes me feel loved everyday. I love this little girl with all my heart and then some and even when things get frustrating with her, I step back and remember just how blessed I am to have had her come into my live five years ago.
