Four

She turned four last weekend without mention here... not because it wasn't on the forefront of all of our minds... on our hearts. Four. It just seems like such a difference from three. With four there isn't even a single breath of toddler left. All kid.

She is stunning. Her heart, her mind, her whole self. Fun and free with affection and kindness. She is complex and yet things are still so simple to her.

She expands the hearts around her every single day.

She is four.

{yesterday I had the big camera out for what seemed like the first time in forever... I forgot how much fun it can be... so I took enough pictures for a few weeks worth of blog posts ;) }

  3. Ah! Beautiful :) How things change over the years, when you see them just as a toddler, a little ray of sunshine, and now growing into becoming something that will change us. Happy Birthday Paige. :)

  4. You are so right. At four all the toddler years have past and their faces lose the little chubby cheeks. Their limbs begin to grow and grow...(you feel and see it as you hold them in your lap...how to hold those long arms and legs that use to fit so easily before...). Happy Birthday...The big camera I find makes me the happiest to use. Worth the weight and bulk everytime.
