Autumn - I can not believe you are 7 years old! I still remember army crawling out of your room so you wouldn't wake up as a baby. I remember rocking you most of the night and exhausted early mornings. Even then you didn't seem to ever run out of energy! And 7 is no different. You are an energetic, hilarious, sweet little girl! You make us laugh hard at least once a day! You are inquisitive and have a big love for those close to you. You work hard in school and are not afraid to try new things. You have an amazing talent on your "acrobat" (which is your affectionate term for your balance bar). We knew you had something amazing when at 18 months you could hold yourself up on the chin-up bar for 5 minutes, grinning the whole time! You bring sunshine into the room with you and I love that you are still a cuddle-bug...Joye turned out to be the perfect middle name for you! Your deep convictions are inspiring and just stinking funny at times. You would defend your sister to the death on any occasion. And on most days you drive her crazy at least once! You run every where you go and you say more words in a few minutes than most people say in days :) You ride your bike at top speed and that's like everything else you do. You are a very special little girl and I'm so glad you are mine! Your Daddy and I are so thankful that the Lord gave us you. You are the perfect last piece to our family puzzle. We love you with our whole hearts and most of our smiles start with you! Happy Birthday Toot :)
On a very important side note...Autumn received a very important birthday card from these guys...
telling us that we get to be an AUNT & UNCLE again!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so excited!! And so was Autumn, although she was maybe more interested at the moment in the horse picture :)
