It is hard to believe you are 5 years old, half of a decade already! I bet if I looked back at your birthday letters from previous years this opening is pretty predictable but as a mom it is reality.
Things in your life are feeling very big right now. You are figuring out that you can choose your friends, are looking forward to preschool graduation in 3 months, are asking questions about kindergarten and college (basically same same right?), and are pushing and proving your independence more everyday. This last week we moved to a new house and you are full of questions about how long we will live here (not long, it is a rental) and who will buy our "old house" (stay tuned).
Your latest skill, that we love and hate, is your ability to turn on the TV, select the proper input, and get Netflix going, which allows us a little extra sleep on weekends but can also be exhausting on evenings that we have deemed screen free. Your favorite food is still predictably pizza, you are turning away from milk as a beverage and request water with your dinner now, and you have caught on to our typical parental bribery and will now beat us to the chase in requesting a treat if you complete the desired task/behavior. Other favorites: color = red, toy = legos, show/movie = anything on a screen.
We are loving watching you grow, are proud to know you, and are excited to see you flourish in your sixth year.
Love you SO BIG!
Mama
