Today we celebrate our middle little… Miss Sutton Grace. The one who bounced into our room at 5:30 a.m. this morning and proclaimed, "Today's my birthday!" The one who requested a “Barbie Princess Charm School” cookie cake for her family party. The one who has a flair for the dramatic. The one who wore four Halloween costumes this year—not one of which was the new costume that she chose when her grandmother so graciously offered to get her whatever costume she wanted for Halloween this year. The one who asks daily when she can start music lessons—any type of music lesson: piano, violin, guitar, etc. The one who when asked what she’d like for dinner, always gives the same answer—macaroni and cheese. The one who, on the eve of her fourth birthday, shared that the best things about being three were: being a Frog, playing at the park with her family and Eastyn spitting up on her :-). The messy one. The one who it seems changes her outfit every time you turn around. The one whose current pretend play of choice with her big sister is school or college girls. The one who loves to "shake her booty." The one who sings and dances her way through most days. The one who literally jumped for joy and squealed with excitement when she unwrapped her Tinkerbelle dress on her birthday. The one who makes us laugh and shake our heads multiple times a day. The one who says "Oh, fine" more often than not with a smile on her face and lets her big sister have her way. The one who, like her daddy, lives by the mantra "Go big or Go home!"
Happy Birthday to our middle little, Sutton Grace. We can't wait to see watch you navigate, help to guide you through and see the "best parts of being four" through your eyes. Love you. Proud of you.
PS - Since our computer where all Sutty's previous birthday pictures are stored was not charged this morning when I started this post, the photo below (first day as a Frog picture) represents one of Sutty's "best of being three-years-old." Sutty's birthday pictures to come!
