Happy Birthday Nan!
What a special girl Keanna is! I am so thankful she was sent to our family. Here are a few reasons that we adore her.
- Keanna is the best big sister. She always helps Ayla, and is very patient with her. Keanna is good at celebrating Ayla's successes, and isn't jealous.
- Keanna has a way of making you feel good about yourself. I think this is a natural talent that she has, but you just feel good when your around her.
- Keanna is very good at crafts! She loves to color, work with yarn, paint and stamp (I think she needs to visit Aunt Wendy for this one)!
- Keanna enjoys learning. She loves to play learning games in the car, read books, do experiments and practice Work on Phonics.
- Keanna has good self discipline. On Saturday morning, Justin and I try to sleep in, which means cartoons go on. She often turns off the TV, and says she has watched too much TV, and that she doesn't want to turn into a TV.
- Keanna is a great traveler! She puts up with the long drives, and our many walks through cities. Her idea of a family day, is getting ice cream and walking around town.
- It's fun to see Keanna learning the concept of teasing. She likes to play tricks and make jokes with Mom and Dad.
It's been fun thinking about our last 5 years with Keanna and the special day that this is for her and for me!

She is so lucky to be over there seeing all of the different places and people - what a great experience!
Wish we were there to celebrate and go out for ice cream!
Happy Birthday Keanna!!!!! She seems all grown up now. Macie misses having her around and still draws lots of pictures and notes for her . . . obviously i don't mail them that often, but it's the thought that counts right?!

This is the sweetest post! How fun to take a minute and reflect on the true character of your little girl. It makes all of those frustrating moments seem so petty. What a beautiful little girl! She reminds me so much of you Em!
