stella

I will always think of St. Pat's a little differently since the one 4 years ago, when I realized I was in labor with Stella. Of course, she wasn't born until the 18th but I was wearing green on the day that I went into labor. . .

Stella

has many nicknames, Stella bug, Stelly bean, Stell bell, sister, sweetie, my best girl

was born 4 days after her due date

is the first grandchild and great grandchild on my side, and number 8 on KC's side

sings like crazy, she is on key, knows words (pretty miraculous to a mother who is practically tone deaf) she in fact, sings her way through her day--i love it

has beautiful blue eyes, that she inherited from Grandpa Williams

takes great care of her little brother

makes up CRAZY names for all of her dolls and animals (Genia, Dookel, I could go on)

loves to read books

knows all of her letters and sounds

can NEGOTIATE like nobody's business(she is smarter than KC and I together)

Says really great prayers on her own

Reminds me daily to pray and read scriptures

reminds me (if i says something inappropriate like crap) that the Prophet wouldn't like me talking like that

walks in high heels better than I could ever do

is a self proclaimed "daddy's girl"

loves her mom "soooo much"

eats spicey foods, like salsa and pepper jack cheese

cuddles with me in the mornings

is HAPPY and smiley and full of laughter

Brightens my life and our home with her very being!

We LOVE her so much

happy birthday Stella
