Happy 5th Birthday Chaney Marie!!!
Dear Chaney,
Time really does fly by. It does not seem like five years ago that I pushed for three hours trying to get you out the door. The moment we saw you all of that was forgotten. You immediately brought tears of joy to our eyes. You are now growing into a little young lady and out of the "little girl" phase.
In the last year your love for fashion has started to shine. You love to pick out your own clothes and get dressed in the morning before you come down for the day. Maybe your love of fashion comes from your aunts because it's definitely not from this mama. You love to accessorize your outfits with lip gloss and any other make-up we allow you to "play" with. You are quite the little fashionista.
Chaney, you are the oldest and great leader for your younger siblings. You are a great helper to your parents. You actually enjoy playing with your brother and sister and interact with them very well. Somedays you do instigate a little bit of trouble but I think that is part of being the oldest. Somedays you even try to act like little "miss mommy." Did that bossiness come from aunt Sarah...hahaha! (We tease Sarah all the time that she has the personality of the oldest child because of her bossiness.) Already you are showing lots of love to your youngest sibling that hasn't even made an appearance yet. You are constantly pulling up my shirt to hug and kiss on him. I'm guessing that when he comes home he will be your personal little baby doll.
Recently we cut about 6 inches off your hair so now it lays right out your shoulders. Now whenever we can't find you we look in the bathroom and find you in there just brushing your hair. It's so funny, because you come in and say, "How does my hair look. It's beautiful, right." Every time we go to a family event with my family all we I hear is how much you look like me. Honestly, I have not gotten out pictures to look, I'm just assuming that means you must be the cutest thing around;-) Now that summer is now here your sandy-brown hair has sun made blonde highlights. Your skin seems to tan very well, I'm guessing that comes from your dad. Your eyes are still as blue as ocean water and sparkle in the light. Your smile is contagious.
Chaney, you are truly a blessing to us. Each day you make us laugh with the random things that come out of your mouth. Since you are our first and oldest we have learned (and failed) so much with you. You are a forgiving and patient person and we are so thankful for that. Each day when I sit and watch all three of you play and interact I can't help but think that the day you were born so was I.
We love you bunches, Chaners!
