Samantha is FOUR

Samantha is a FOUR year old! My big girl!! She’s the smiliest and happiest child to be around and I’m so glad she’s mine!

From this precious baby girl (born on her due date at 1:04pm)…

To this happy one year old….

To this perfectly perfect two year old….

To this lively three year old…

To this sweet and sassy four year old!

Oh my little Samantha Sunshine! She keeps life so fun! She loves baby dolls, doing hair and makeup, mermaids, watching Barbie and anything girly! She’s happiest with a big bow in her hair and some type of pink or purple on! She’s the most affectionate little thing and always asks me “Momma, can we snuggle?” Although, she knows the power of those snuggles and hugs and uses them to her advantage with Maxwell! He would hug her all day if he could and she never lets him! ha! Maxwell loves her the most. She and Spencer are buddies and, if it’s just the two of them, they shine! The play well together and are the best of buds. She loves Dad and lets her light shine on him occasionally but Samantha is definitely a Momma’s girl and wants me to do everything for her. It’s wonderful and exhausting.

Samantha loves dance and is often the leader in the class. She’s doing great at gymnastics and is clearly athletic and coordinated. This has been a fantastic year at school – she can write her name, knows all of her letters, and loves going to class every day! She sleeps in her big girl bed like a champ, though she still usually gets up once a night to use the bathroom and has to come get me to help her. She could do it on her own but…Momma’s girl! ha! There is nothing sweeter than singing her songs at night and watching her little fingers rub Baa-Baa’s ears…nothing sweeter at all.

My little girl with the big personality! She’s funny and sassy and silly and always sweet. Strong-willed, full of opinions, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
