Happy Birthday Patience!

This morning Patience slept peacefully until 7:30, while the rest of the family willed her awake to enjoy her birthday surprises. When she finally woke up, she was thrilled with her decorations.

Big brother Sean helped her see and enjoy each of her treasures!

Here is Patience with her American Girl doll, Alice, who is wearing her doggie costume.

Here is Patience holding her Backyardigan friends: Pablo, Tasha, Austin, Tyrone, and Uniqua.

And finally, here is the beloved scooter. Jordyn also likes the scooter. A lot. I have a feeling this will become the bone of contention until Jordyn gets her own scooter. For now Patience is being very kind in taking turns with Jordyn.

Happy birthday, Sweetheart! You've blessed our lives for 4 wonderful years and we continue to thank the Lord for you!
