Karaline is 5


DSC04929

I am so completely amazed that my little girl turned 5 last month.  Some words to describe her!

K – Kind:  Pastor Jim & Miss Kristi told us a few months ago about how you befriended a lonely girl at Children’s Church; sitting next to her, asking her questions, and being friendly.  You treat everyone like you would like to be treated and make friends everywhere you go.

A – Artistic:  You love to color, cut, glitter, and glue.  You put love into every creation you make!  I love crafting and creating with you.

R – Ready for Kindergarten:  The last few weeks, you have really taken off with your reading!  You always want to practice your letters, play school, an most recently read the phonics stories on www.starfall.com.  I see so much of myself in you.

A – Amazing Big Sister:  You love your little brother with all your heart and are always willing to lend a hand to play with, read to, sing to, or even feed him to help out your ol’ mom and dad!

L – Little Lady:  You love PINK, lacy, girly, twirly clothes, dolls, Barbies, bling, dance class, and jewelry, but you also aren’t afraid to get a little dirty and dusty at T-Ball!

I – Inquisitive.  You are always asking how something works, why something is, or what something means.  You are always open to learning something new.

N – GeNerous:    For your birthday, we bought you several outfits so that your friends could dress up their Barbie dolls and put on a fashion show.  When it was time to go, you whispered to me “Can all my friends take home a cloe (your word for a singular piece of clothing)?”  I said, “Well, they are your clothes, so it is your choice.”  You wanted all of your friends to have a new cloe to remember your party.  I even asked if you wanted to choose one first since you were the birthday girl.  To which you responded, “No, my friends can choose first.”  All of the moms’s jaws dropped and I tried not to cry.  How did you turn out so well?

E – Energetic:  You never slow down and HATE to nap (unless you accidently fall asleep in the car!).
