FIVE!

[wayfaringwordhack]

Last week, we celebrated Sprout's fifth birthday. All parents say this, but, Wow. Where did the time go?  A little update on the not-so-little Miss:

She is taking ballet for the second year. After her tryouts she was promoted from level one to level four. Papa bought her a bouquet of flowers to congratulate her:

She's very into costume design, art, and having fun with her brother:

Barbie's get-up is made from different colors of metallic tape. :P

So for a girl like that, we (OK, I) decided to have a pARTy for her birthday:

All in all, she continues to be a real live wire...

Wow! She's five??? Wow.

Does she love her ballet lessons? What a sweet picture with the bouquet. :D

Happy belated birthday to Sprout!

She does love her lessons. :D

And Sprout wants to know why you all didn't come to her party. LOL

Happy birthday, Sprout!

I'll let her know you said so. ;)

I remember her birth well. :) (Well, that is, the story of her birth!) And I remember that I translated that article about motherhood in your honor, and subsequently ended up sending a link to every friend of mine who became a new parent. :)

...That is, every friend of mine who became a new mother. When J became a father, I had to write him a new one!

The photo where she's jumping is just beautiful. Flying!

And I really see you in her--wonderful ♥

Happy birthday, Sprout!

I wanted to share a lot of flying photos, but I practiced restraint. :P

Growing up so fast! :)

It sometimes feels not fast enough, but yeah...so fast. :P

Five! The time has gone so fast. What a talented little beauty!

[mnfaure.livejournal.com]

She really is. The best thing about watching her is seeing how much fun she has doing what she likes.

[folklorelei]

That freedom and joy is a real testament to her parents.
