February is our busy month: Jake's birthday, the annual heart walk, and we finish the month with our Grace's birthday. Gracie turned 4 this year and we loved celebrating our princess! We had a joint birthday party for both kids the weekend of the walk, rock-n-roll themed, and then Grace got to go have lunch at the American Girl store with the triplets the weekend of her real birthday. They were celebrating turning six and its always fun to have a girl's day with them.
Grace is a gift from God. We adore our little princess who only wears dresses. She always has an opinion and is strong-willed but I know God is honing her to be a mighty warrior for Him. She talks non-stop. We hear her talking in the morning when she wakes up and she literally talks herself to sleep at night. She loves reading and always has a stack of books in her bed to look through. She loves hearing Bible stories and can recite word for word lessons she hears in Bible class. She loves school and has a sweet group of girlfriends in her class--she is definitely a social butterfly. She is constantly ready for a new adventure--she wakes up every morning wanting to know where we are going…if I don't have a plan, she'll make one. She adores her big brother. She and Jake play so well together and love each other until they don't :) They're almost the same size now and most people assume they're twins. She loves all things girl--My Little Pony, her barbies, her baby dolls, anything pink, but she's also the first to play in the dirt and make a huge mess. She's not afraid of getting dirty! She is obsessed with flowers--it takes every inch of will power she has not to pick them when she's not supposed to. We love our Gracie!
