My Little Birthday Girl!!!!

Just a little about my little birthday girlie as Mommy sees it...Miriam was born after 12 hours of labor. She was my angel baby, she is the only reason I knew what a good baby should be like :) She has always been a girlie girl. Even at a young age if I wanted her to wear something I just had to hold her up to a mirror and say "pretty" and she would wear it.

She loves playing dollies. Her favorite color is pinkalicious. She is very diplomatic about getting what she wants. If one of the other kids has a toy she wants she never just comes out and asks for it, she attempts to make another toy look fun and then offers to trade for the toy she wants.

She was so brave last Sunday and went to her Sunbeam class all alone. We had said a prayer the week before to help her be brave and after sacrament, without being asked she said, "I want to go to my class!" Daddy had to peek in the window of her sunbeam class every 5 minutes, but she did it!

She loves to sing herself to sleep singing "Silent Night" She is learning how to share with Hazel and often gives up a toy just to be kind. She has a very sensitive heart, we have to be careful never to speak to sharply or her little heart just melts and she cries and cries.

Her favorite stories are the parables of the bible, especially the parable of the sower, and she loves the story of Jesus in Gethsemane. She can sit and listen to me read stories for hours, she just keeps getting me books.

She love to draw and color and enjoys being mommy's helper. She always offers to help me cook dinner, she says, "Can I help you be a Mommy?" and that means she wants to help me with my Mommy business.
