today our little Lydia turns three... 

at three...you're sweet, loud, thoughtful, imaginative, happy, stubborn, ornery, funny, you love wearing dresses, not jeans, pink is your favorite, love your "boys" {Collin & Evan}, your daddy, want your mommy {unless I won't let you have your way... then it's all daddy}, you love Olivia the pig, Dora the Explorer, Curious George & Cinderella, you like butterflies, you love being at home, staying in your pjs all day, you recently gave up your binky, you've been potty trained almost a year, you got you're ears pierced a few months ago, you still carry "stinky pinky" that you've had from day 1, you don't enjoy change, you always know when it's Lydie Friday, you hate snow & anything else that gets you wet & dirty, you freak out a little when your fingers get wrinkly after a bath, your favorite breakfast is pink oatmeal, you like sandwiches & pizza & fruit & lots of milk! 

we've had a great time having you in our family, little girl.  you've brought lots of laughter, lots of pink, & just lots of girly stuff!  there is definitely days when you challenge us with your strong personality, but you always makes us smile & laugh with your funny ways. we love you miss Lydia Marie :)

happy birthday to you!
