London @ 5 Years Old













Dear London,

Happy 5th Birthday! I am so happy you are 5. 

I have to say this last year was really rough. Your strong personality struggled at school but you kept working at it. 

The closer you got to 5 - the more we were able to work together and really make some progress. You have really stepped up and learned more control and how to communicate more. 

You finally have started to love riding bikes - last summer you were NOT into it. But like everything, you decided it was time and you took off. 

You have also really taken to swimming. I can't say you "swim" but you love the water and feel very confident. 

You love reading but overall you are not super interested in school - but that is totally ok. You ARE excited that you get to start Kindergarten in  August. 

It's funny because you took a long time to pick your birthday activity and your restaurant. 

The fact that the following week we left for Cancun also added to the craziness - but honestly, it feels like the entire month we are celebrating your birthday. 

You love Sydney and a few key friends at school - but overall you are totally ok with being by yourself. You still love to watch TV and we have to super careful to not have you go crazy. 

You still love crafts and painting. You still love babies the most but I can see you totally growing out of that - you really are becoming a little girl. 

London, I love how you love Jesus and Heavenly Father. You still talk a lot about Baby B and you seem so connected to the spirit. The other day you shared with Sydney and you said "Mom, Jesus would be proud." 

And he would be. You love to pray and always talk about who we could pray for. 

I love you little fiesty London. You are going to do big things this coming year. I am so thankful I get to be a part of it. 

Love,

Mommy
