Blonde, blue, and six

Today is Stephie's half birthday!  She got all dressed up for the occasion.  Tiara included.

Violet looked extra fancy too with her hair bow.

What?!?

 Haley has a bit of a cold so she's not currently allowed to touch Violet except for on her feet.

More pictures of the half-birthday fun to come.  In the meantime, here is the poem I wrote for Stephie's birthday book:

Stephie - Blonde, Blue and Six

Who would believe
at just six and a half
she could make my whole day
with her smile and her laugh?

Wavy blonde hair 

tied up in a bow
and her bright blue eyes
that happily glow.

She skips 'round the room

and twirls and grooves

and she puts her hands on
her hips with a move

With a hug and a smile
my whole world lights up,
you'd think she's the tea
and I'm just the cup.

And when she is serious
and awfully concerned
over some startling fact
just a sigh ago learned.

She comforts us all
with "It'll be alright"
and giggles and wriggles
as I turn out the light

Six and a half

going on twenty three

but when I look at her
it's my baby I see

And if you're not a slave
to a child like this
I hope you'll too be blessed
with blonde, blue, and six
