Kara is 9!

How are the years going by so much quicker? How is my baby already 9?

Look at this picture from this morning:















Such a wonderful girl! I love her energy and enthusiasm. She is so beautiful and full of life! She's so smart and loves to learn. She is so good with her hands and loves to knit and crochet (already!). She always wants to learn a new craft. I'm glad she has developed such a love for reading and thirsts for knowledge of all subjects (except math, but that's ok). She's happy to be in a new area and has already made new friends at Church, which we're really excited for! We'll have a birthday party for her in a couple of weeks after she's gotten to know the girls at Church a little better.


Every year Kara loves to see her birthday sign - this was posted in the hall outside her bedroom door. She said she was happy to see it first thing this morning!


















Every year we hang up streamers or ribbons in the doorway to her bedroom... this year she was still half awake, so I had to hang them in the hall. I guess this way Brooke can enjoy walking through them too!




















Kara, Mom & Dad love you and hope you have a special day! Hope this is your best birthday yet!
