Caroline- 5 Years Old


Oh my sweet and sassy girl, how did we get to five? Those baby years went by so fast but then these last few have felt much longer since you have been saying since you were 3.5 that you couldn't wait to be 5. I hope five is everything you envisioned and hope it to be. 

You stay pretty busy these days and go to preschool three days a week and gymnastics on one of the off days. That gives us the other day to still go to little kid storytime, at the library, with your sister. Things are going to look so different next year when you head off to kindergarten every day for longer hours than you already go to school now. Our mornings and afternoons will be filled with carpool lines, and it will be different to only have one kid around the house most of the day. But let's not get ahead of ourselves we have almost a whole year to prepare and have preschool fun before that happens! 

We love you so much and can't wait to watch you grow, though sometimes we wish we could stay here at this age a little longer.

Things I don't want to forget about you at this age.
-You panic when you realize your teeth are loose and ready to come out. I have pulled your last two after you asked me to and once it was over you were beyond excited to lose and get your next big kid tooth.
- You love Mary. You want to go and pray a Hail Mary by her statue after church before heading home.
- You are empathetic. When your sister is crying and you offering her everything (hugs, bottle, paci, new toy, YOUR toys) to make her happy again. If you notice that I am tired you suggest I close my eyes and rest for a bit and you follow it up with a hug and a pat on my back. You make your Daddy and I endless cards and pictures to show us how much you love us.
- You do not like us to not be home at bedtime and you get quite teary when you know Daddy or I won't be there to tuck you in. You insist that we come in and give you a hug and a kiss when we get home even if you have already fallen asleep.
- You sing everything and make up lots of songs too.
- You don't suck your thumb anymore since being too afraid to touch the holes left by your missing teeth.
- You still sleep with your bunny and your blankie, along with whatever the newest or "special" toy is
- At your birthday party you were most excited about everyone singing Happy Birthday to you, you ate up all the attention.
