Our Baby Turns Six!!


Today is Malia's sixth birthday what an exciting day! Malia has been counting down for this day for the last two months it seems, but really more in detail the last two weeks. I am taking carrot cake cupcakes with cream cheese frosting to school today and will read a book Malia picked out for me to read to her class. She has picked lasagna with garden salad and bread for dinner and chocolate cherry cake for her birthday cake (black forest cake). We traditionally do these things for each of our kids so this is something each of them look forward too. Malia seems to believe that this is her day "to be in charge" I think because she gets to choose whats for dinner and so forth. She has asked for a snowboard for her birthday gift..I am not sure where that is coming from seeing how none of us snowboard. I don't think she will be disappointed with her gifts however despite that there is no snowboard in the packages. Malia is the baby of our family and is growing so fast. We enjoy Malia very much and her sweet little spirit that seems to burst from every seam of her being. The joy and love that Malia brings to our home is UN-measurable, here are a few things that we love about Malia...

We love and adore our little Malia and are so thankful that she is our blessing and that we are entrusted with her. She is so lively and bubbly and to sum it up in one word "contagious" We love you Malia and love the lovely little person that you are growing up to be! Happy Birthday baby!
