Happy 6th birthday to our Summer girl!

Happy 6th birthday, Summer!  We can hardly believe that you are 6 already!  As I update the blog on what you've been up to this year, I am also including your answers to our yearly questionnaire.  You're too cute in your answers, Summer Journey!
The last year has been so much fun to watch you grow and change and love so big!  You played Upward basketball for the first time this year, and you had so much fun!  
1. What is your favorite color? pink and purple, wait, can you have two?
2. What is your favorite toy? Barbies and princesses.  
3. What is your favorite fruit? Any!

You lost your first of two teeth this year and couldn't wait to call everyone you knew to tell them the big news!
4. What is your favorite tv show? Tinkerbell and Doc McStuffins. 
5. What is your favorite thing to eat for lunch?  Kid's meals. 
6. What is your favorite outfit? My white lace dress from T.  I wore it last Sunday. 

You love love to ride horses.  This is the second year in a row our church has hosted a spring festival with horses available for riding.  You could hardly wait to take a turn!  
We celebrated your Kindergarten graduation together this year.  
It was so much fun to watch you sing your little heart out with your classmates during the program.  
7. What is your favorite game?  Chutes and Ladders.  
8. What is your favorite snack?  Italian Ice.  
9. What is your favorite animal? Horses.  
You are such a sweet, sweet big sister to Tilly and to Story.  You help take care of them and love them and nurture them.  You're like a little mommy!

But, it's no secret that he is your favorite.  The two of you have been inseparable since you were born, and it is just precious to watch the two of you together.  Your daddy and I joke often that we pity the girl and boy who comes between you and Carter, whew!  


10. What is your favorite song?  "Mean" by Taylor Swift.  She started singing it when I asked her!
11. What is your favorite book?  Dr. Seuss. 
12. Who is your best friend?  I have lots of them.  Mary Carter and Sydney.

17. What do you like to take to bed with you at night? Books to read.  (She's so my girl!)

You are by far the best sleeper in our house.  
See what I mean?  This past year, you only went to Kindergarten for a 1/2 day, mostly because you still take a good 2 hour nap on most days.  In the next couple of weeks, we are going to have to wean you from those since you will be going to school for a full day in August.  I know you can handle it!  You love going to school!
18. What is your favorite thing to eat for breakfast? Toaster streudals and poptarts. 
19. What do you want for dinner on your birthday?  Five Guys, so we can eat peanuts!
20. What do you want to be when you grow up?  I'm still thinking about that one!

Summer you are kind, loving, tender-hearted, inquisitive, nurturing, hilarious, thoughtful, unique, independent, energetic, beautiful, lovely, affectionate, and perfectly wonderful just the way God made you.  Daddy, Carter, Tilly, Story and I love you oh so much!  We hope your 6th birthday has been so very special!
