Dear Hayden,

Today, you turned seven. I cannot believe how quickly you have grown! You are such a wise little girl and we are blessed by you every single day. This was a big year for you. You finished kindergarten, found the true joy in reading and learned to play chords on the piano. You speack articulately and have such a sweet sense of humor. WE are constantly amazed at the wonder with which you approach life. You are always excited when there is a chance to learn something, and you are facinated by every new thing you learn. We love you so much!

Yesterday we had an art party with your friends and today we had cake and went to Sweet Tomatoes for dinner with Grandma and Jiddoh and Meggy, Jeffrey and Josiah. It was such a fun birthday weekend!

Love you,
Mama

Dear H, O and B,

This weekend we camped at Fool Hollow Lake with the Gutes, Keatings and Benedicts. It was such a fun weekend! There were so many great kids to play with and you all had an amazing time!

Love you,
Mama
