SWEET SYDNEY IS SIX!

What happened to my little peanut? Time really does fly. I have a handful of memories that I consider to be "the best of the best" of my life.  The day that Sydney joined our family was definitely one of them. The first 24 hours of Sydney's life, I was running on pure adrenaline (okay maybe the drugs helped) but I could not sleep, I was thrilled beyond measure with our little girl.  Nothing could have prepared me for the feeling of intense love that came with our little Sydney Sunshine. I am so grateful for her happy little attitude, her friendly skills,  and the way she treats Tate and Emmy.

We love you Syd!

I feel like overnight Sydney has gone from a toddler to an independent little lady. Maybe loosing her first baby tooth has aged her. Here are a few things that I have noticed about the Sydster lately. She wants to do her own hair or at least make additions (I smile on the outside, cry on the inside). No more dining on plastic toddler ware, she has noticed that Trent and I use different place settings and now makes sure she is above the Ikea dish ware. She is also very aware of herself and her out fit for the day. Syd wares a very preppy uniform to school but loves to add pink socks to give it her own flare. She is quick to point out on me or anyone else, what is "cute" and what is "not really cute". I always appreciate these observations because she is sincerely trying to help. You are right Syd, I should roll my socks "snake" style. Everything she colors or writes is done in a rainbow pattern, EVERYTHING. She is a little sponge that is soaking everything up. I love, love, love that she is becoming her own person, her  questions about life and her overall desire to do what is right. We love you Sydney.
