Forever “un-FOUR-gettable” – Happy 4th birthday Lia!
Here we are again… The night before your birthday! Over the years we’ve baked, had a tea party or two-hundred and now; our little “milkaholic“, you are turning 4! The days seem to fly by quicker every year. How can your 4th birthday already be here?
Lia, you’re an incredible little girl, almost impossible to describe. Knowing you is like the feeling of pure sunshine and being your parents is a gift and blessing we’ll never stop being thankful for.
Our days, our family and our hearts are happier with you in our lives .
You’re a gift to the world – “un-four-gettable” to everyone you meet!
You make magic and leave a touch of sparkle wherever you go…
Fairy tales are true and dress up, a daily must-do! From the pixies and gnomes that live in the garden next to your window to the princesses you dream of one day meeting… You are ready. Dresses, shoes and tiaras. The more sparkly the better!
Lala isn’t just a bunny… She’s your bestie, adventuring along right by your side from day one.
You’re proud to be a girl and always reminding me, how much fun it is to be a woman.
Your heart loves and feels like no other’s…
Becoming a big sister has shown us a side we never knew existed. You still look up to Eliana as the eldest but you fiercely protect Ava because she is now the youngest.
You’re caring and kind. Endlessly patient and mindful, helpful at every chance you get. You play and cuddle with the softest touch and there’s always time for “just one more good night kiss”.
Four is an emotional age and sometimes your temper gives you a fright but you have a heart of gold that knows when you’ve misbehaved. Then you’re quick to say sorry, ready to move forward, learning to be better.
You seek the beauty hidden in this world and see a place filled with wonder…
Looking at life through pink and purple coloured glasses, the smallest joys excite you. The sweet taste of cakes and cookies. Sleep-ins, endless chatter and song. You dance through life and never miss an outing.
You’re strong and mighty even though you’re tiny…
Strong willed, brave, adventurous and eager! You have a mind of your own, determined to succeed.
You’re testing the boundaries, and at times it does drive us crazy but we know it’s your courage, faith and fiery soul that will take you to all the places you need to go.
Lia, the world is at your feet waiting for you to leap.
Happy 4th birthday Lillipit…
May you stay forever “un-FOUR-gettable” our sweet little girl.
