Alyssa is 6 years old today. She is such a fun girl to be around and we are so grateful to have her in our family. Some of the things I love most about Alyssa are:
-Her independence. She is certain of what she wants and she stays focused until she reaches her goals.
-She has a big heart! Whenever she senses sadness, she will make it better with a picture or a card.
-She has a strong spirit. With surety she said that if she ever died it would be alright because her Grandma Carol would take care of her.
-She is excited about learning. She loves school and especially loves to read. Many times she brings home more books to read each night than expected of her.
-She is a sweet sister. Despite their age gap, she loves to entertain Mason and keep him occupied. She rarely loses her patience with him.
-She is a kind friend. The head on Hailey's gingerbread cookie broke and she started to cry. Alyssa said, "Don't cry" broke the head off of her cookie and said, "look mine is broken too!"

Today at Miriam's party said, "I can't wait until I turn 18 because then I can wear dangaly (sp?) earrings." I just noticed your comment on the side about when she turns 18 and drives. What is it with her and wanting to be 18? :)
