My Sweet Everly,
You are FOUR today! And what a big four it is. You have been planning, plotting and reminding of this birthday for at least six months now. You are a girl who is all about the party and the experience. You want a big event to share with everyone who crosses your path, be it strangers, friends or family. Your list is a mile-long of what this day should involve (streamers, cakes, cake pops, cupcakes, candy, balloons, table wraps {tablecloths}, presents, skiing, swimming, hot tubs, skating, games, painting, sunshine, and family). We've done our best. We figured a day of surprises would delight you, and so we decorated for you in the middle of the night, set out gummy worms for breakfast, took you skiing all day and hot-tub'd the evening away, we snuggled during a movie and spread out the presents to last all day. And your sweet four-year old smile shined on, all day.
My darling Foreverly. You are an amazing little girl. You are confident and outgoing. You smile and chat with everyone you meet and hand out compliments to everyone. You make EVERYONE smile back at you. You magically entice an entire lodge of strangers to suddenly spring into song, singing Happy Birthday to you, while your bright eyes sparkle. You hand out hugs when you think someone's having a bad day, and you pat my hand in the middle of the night as I help you drift back to sleep. You love to draw (quite accurately, this proud mama says!) and you easily get lost for hours in a land of make believe with your stuffed animals and toys. You are cheerful, endearing and tenacious as much as you are strong minded and determined. You are my Forever Everly. I love you SO much.
Love,
Mama
