How can she already be four? It is so true that time flies by with children. It is mind boggling to know that she is four, that this will be her fifth Christmas, that she is considered a Preschooler. I always said I wouldn't be one of those moms that cried when their child goes to kingergarten. I never understood why that was such a big step that bought moms to tears. I get it now. I mean, I choke up just thinking about it, and I still have a year and a half left with her at home during the day!

Oh Riley, happy birthday sweet girl. You are caring and generous and have such a tender heart. I love how you take care of Jude by sharing with him and making sure he has what he needs. I love that you are concerned for your friends and show them God's love by hugging them and sharing. I love how your personality is blooming. One of your favorite things to do right now is sing anything, but really Jesus songs, and that makes our hearts so happy. Your giggles are one of my favorite sounds on earth. You ask me to pray for you before you have rest time or bed time. I see in you the growing desire to know God and there is nothing that delights me more. I knew you would be a continuous blessing from the Lord. But I had no clue how much you would bless me and teach me. My cup runneth over.
