My New Favorite 4 Year Old

Faith's birthday fell on a Wednesday this year so we had cupcakes and opened presents before scooting off to Family Quest. She loves FQ so she didn't seem to mind sharing her birthday night.

I used left over frosting to make just a few cupcakes after all the sweets we had over the weekend for her big Pinkalicious Party. (photos coming soon...)
Grace had picked a book Faith already received for her sister's gift so I took her to WalMart and let her choose a new gift. Wow, that took a lot longer than planned. She was very indecisive. I finaly boosted our budget a bit and let her pick out this Pinkalicious doll. I was having a bit of guilt over spending the extra $10, but this picture and the joy Grace got from her sister adoring her gift made it worth it.

We got Faith the first 8 books from the Magic Treehouse series on cd. As you can see from the picture she was little uncertain about these at first. But, the girls have been listening to them before they go to bed and I'm not sure who is loving it more us or them. It has made bedtime go much smoother. I definitely see more books on cd in their Christmas future.
Did I mention she LOVED the doll? ;)
She insisted she have a number 4 candle. Apparently it looked very yummy to Titus because I found it later with a big bite out of it.
Faith,
You are growing up before our eyes. You are such our girlie girl. We treasure you and see many great ways the Lord can use you as you grow. You have become much braver to pray at dinnertime and I enjoy hearing the list of many things you are thankful for. We pray that you will come to love Jesus with all your heart and that he will use your life in a mighty way. We love your our precious princess.
Daddy & Mama
