DEAR TAYLOR......

Where on earth has the time gone? You will be 5 years old in just a few short weeks and that makes me feel so sad and so happy all at the same time. The more you grow, the more I realize the incredible potential that you have in this life. You are an absolutely amazing little girl and I can't tell you enough how thankful I am to have you as my oldest daughter. Your energy and determination to accomplish whatever you set your mind on is so impressive to me. You definitely know what you want and how you want it! Taylor, you are such a fun person to be around! No matter where we go, you always make a new friend......there is just something about you that draws others towards you & makes them want to be around you! I am so proud of you in every way and I hope you know that when I am hard on you it's only because I love you SO MUCH and want nothing more than for you to succeed. Your father and I already know that life has much success in store for you! Your outgoing personality and sincere kindness are just a few of my favorite things about you! Always know that your sisters love and adore you and look up to you. Some of my favorite moments during the day are when you take the time to show your sisters how to do something.......I'm sure they will learn ALL kinds of things from you! As you become a big sister once again please know right now how much we appreciate all you do to make our family so great! We would not be the same without you!

Lots of Love,

Mom

You love your little sisters!

You LOVE getting dressed for preschool......

This was your very first day this year.....

.....you got to show your sisters what you do during the day!

You love to draw and create new pictures!

You are so much fun to watch play soccer and you are loving having your dad as your soccer coach this season. When you found out your exact words were, "Oh Dad, that is so funny!"

Your sisters are your biggest fans and love to cheer you on at your games!

Love love your friends! (Here you are with your good friend Avery at the Saravia Carnival)

You love getting to go on field trips with your friends from school!
