Six Years Old

I just can't believe that this little thing entered our world six years ago today!
One Day Old

Six Years Old

What?? Evie is six years old!  Evie continues to amaze and challenge us each and every day.  She is as bright and loud and alert as the day she was born.  Evie has such a passion for life and for living out loud.  She loves to sing and currently wants to be a Pop Star when she grows up.  (Not a rock star, though, because only boys are rock stars...as she informed me on the way home the other day...) 
She has really started to develop a love for learning.  She is learning to read and I am amazed every time we sit down together and she shows me something new she has learned.  Evie has really started to learn and memorize scripture with her church group here in Odessa.  We got her a new Bible for her birthday and she was so very excited.  Before we gave it to her, I went through and highlighted all of the verses she has memorized in the last few weeks.  She was so excited when I showed her the "yellow" verses and is excited to get to highlight more verses as she learns them.  
I am still amazed every day at this precious, zealous and outgoing little person that the Lord blessed us with six years ago.  We love you Evie-girl!
