Our Sweet Pea (or as her Papa calls her... Punkin Bug) just turned four about a week ago. She is full of life and truly "four". We enjoy her so much and can't believe how big she's getting. She just loves annoying her sister and taking care of her little brother. Just today, we picked Kate up from school and Erin immediately started copying everything Kate said. Where does she get this stuff?
Erin has known for exactly one year that she wanted to have a Snow White birthday cake. So I improvised, made a cake and added Snow White figurines on top. The thing though, about this cake, was that she had to have the witch from Snow White. Erin got it in her head and Daddy came to the rescue with a witch figurine.
Erin doesn't like to eat. She grazes. She would be perfectly happy with a bowl of snacks on the table to eat from all day. She loves to dress up and immediately removes her clothes whenever we get home to put on a dress up costume. She needs routine. She loves imaginative play. She loves books. And of course, Brown Bear. She is very sweet and loving. I often wonder what being the middle child is like and how this will affect her personality someday. She will be the child who calls someday at Christmas time, to wish us all happy holidays, from Rome or somewhere exotic. She is independent, yet connected.
Erin's Version:
"Twinkle, twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are.
Up above the world so high.
Like a diamond window sky.
Twinkle, twinkle little star,
How I wonder what you are."
"Row, row, row your boat,
Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Like a spider dream."
She is a cutie and knows what she wants, great cake!
ReplyDeleteI totally agree.....she has the greatest imagination. It's so much fun watching her grow up.
