The Ponytail

So our first successful, non-crying big girl ponytail happened this afternoon. While she was distracted looking out the window, I quickly put Kate's hair up. She wanted to see her big girl ponytail in the mirror and loved it when I showed her how to swish it back and forth "just like mommy".






She managed to keep it up most of the evening at the church's Lego Night (which was a blast) as she played hard with all her little friends (good job to you too, Kaylie, for keeping in your ponytail at night). It is both sad to see our little peanut seem so grown up and yet enjoyable to watch her running around, building tiny block creations, playing/sharing/throwing legos/toppling towers/drenching herself at the drinking fountain with Esther/and so full of life that she won the "Most Energy" award! :o) Thank you, Lord, for this healthy, delightful daughter you are trusting us to raise!
