Count Your Many Blessings - Sophie

Here are a few of the blessings I'm counting about Sophie.

She has what must be one of the best giggles on earth.

She is truly an amazing reader. She blows me away. As an added blessing, she is often willing to read to Will.

She has a compulsion that I do not understand to create. Coloring, painting, gluing, glittering, cutting etc. Every day. She would way rather not eat than not have art time.

She makes up beautiful songs and sing them loudly, without embarrassment.

She is a wonderful big sister.

She is funny, not just "kids say the darnedest things" funny, but actually funny.

She is over-the-moon excited about having a baby sister. She talks to her nightly.

She is passionate about her love of the color pink.

She deeply feels all her feelings and shares them openly with us.

She loves to plan parties, including themes, guest lists, activities, food etc.

She appreciates a beautiful dress.

She thinks in stories.

She is my passionate, "little girl with a curl," and whether she's being "very good" or "horrid," the Lord uses her to teach me oh, so much.
