Happy Birthday Dearest Girl


Happy Birthday dearest girl

Tomorrow you will be four.  FOUR!  and I'll probably tell you this every single year on your birthday, but honestly, where has the time gone??

The last four years have been incredible.  You have made us all laugh more times than I can count, and every single stage you go through I swear couldn't be any cuter - and then you prove me wrong.

I love how you think you are the BEST dancer in the world and how you sing at the top of your voice on the bus with your little headphones on, without a single care in the world.  Please don't ever loose that confidence, it's so endearing and watching your makes my heart skip a beat.

When I asked you the other day to stop growing so quickly, you just asked "Why mummy?"  I told you it's because I wanted to keep you as my little girl forever (which you were really NOT impressed with - I mean what three your old doesn't want to turn four??).  But actually, after thinking about it for a while I've decided that I really can't wait to watch you grow up.  You are already such a beautiful and loving little girl, and although I'm going to miss all those special moments we've had together, I am so excited (and proud) that I get to spent a million more with you.

Enjoy your last ever, ever, ever, ever, EVER day of being three my little mouse.

I love you to the moon and back

Mummy xx

  2. Oh, how much do you just want to freeze time and keep them little forever! My baby turned 4 a few weeks ago and I wanted to squeeze him so tight that I squeezed him back to 3! She looks adorable in that pink tutu!
    Big hugs to you Mrs D and happy birthday little Miss 4 xx

  7. Love the skirt. Mikala wants one! If she is anything like her she will want to be a grown up while I am trying to keep her my baby. She looks just gorgeous!

  9. Oh I hope she had a lovely day!
    I remember saying the same thing to my eldest, and she burst into tears! Apparently staying little is just the worst thing ever!!
    Sorry for the delayed IBOT comment. I've had a crazy week! Better late than never though right?
