She's four?!??!

Erika turned four.  I'm not sure when my little baby turned four.  It's nearly impossible to believe that that many years have passed since she was born.  So much has happened, so many life events to list. 

She is such a little person with big ideas and deep thoughts.  Her feelings are intense, her actions large, her speech thoughtful.  She uses words like camouflage and adorable without batting an eye, and judges others' moods in order to gauge her own approach.  Such a sweet little girl.

In four short years, my baby has turned into a little girl. I am so proud of her.

Happy 4th birthday, Erika. 

Love you lots.
