Avery's 4th Birthday

It's amazing to think, 4 years ago, we were blessed with this amazing little girl that we
named Avery Noelle. Now our little baby is turning 4 and is not so little anymore.
A few things about you at 4:
-You have an amazing spirit!
-You love anything disney princess, although I would say you love Ariel the most.
-You love to draw, color, paint, anything to do with crafts.
-You can write your name and the alphabet, love to count and rhyme (hat, cat, rat,...)
-You can be shy until you feel comfortable in your setting, then watch out
you lead the pack!
-You are a wonderful daughter, granddaughter, sister and buddy!
-We love you!!! Happy Birthday Aves!

I'm Four!
