Michal Kate

I am just taken back today. I can't believe that Michal Kate is 5! I can still remember every detail from finding out we were expecting her, being told that she was a healthy baby girl, and the day of her birth. A very long day by the way! I am near tears as I look on at these pictures. I tried to get pictures this year from either her birthday parties from the past or the actual day of her birthday. So I hope you enjoy.
Michal Kate, you continually amaze your daddy and I, along with everyone you meet. Your zest and DRAMA for life, your life, your smile, the way you love other people and other things so enthusiastically is truly a gift from our Father. You are our oldest but you will forever be our baby girl. Though over the last couple of days you keep reminding me that you aren't a baby you are 5 (with a strong east Texas accent). We love how easily you meet and love people and you don't know a stranger. You are beautiful inside and out! We love you so much and wish you the happiest of birthdays, sorry this silly flu bug had to find you this week of all weeks!
