I love how you are growing up to be such a wonderfully loving big sister to Nathan.
I also adore how you like to hang out with your big cousin Drew, even if he doesn't seem to appreciate it as much.
I love your fearless spirit -- one that likes to hang about and horse around with your crazy Auntie Nettie.
I'm glad we got to spend time together over Christmas. Just "you and me -- Not Amber. Not Nathan. Not Mama. Just Elle and Aunt Nettie!" I hope you had as much fun as I did.I'm glad that you helped your Poppa rake the leaves in the backyard, and then helped Mama out with the shopping. You picked out all kinds of yummy groceries for the family. Thanks for helping take care of the dishes and the cooking too.
I'm glad we got to hang out at the farm. You did such a good job taking care of the horse, picking out the crops, the chicken eggs, and then raking the field. Your Grandma Ollie Jane would have loved to have you around as a little helper. You must help Grandma Virginia when you see her on the ranch to be so good.
But Elle? We are a little worried about your penchant for the Pirates and the Construction Workers. Not that there is anything wrong with a good Pirate (your dad is one after all), and girls can be builders too ...
How about you stick to butterflies, rainbows, dancing around in the breezes, and stay out of the drivers seat for a little while longer? Please? I'm already gray enough and we don't need to talk about the family driving record.
Happy Birthday my little Elle! I love your snuggles and I love you so much,
xo
Auntie Nettie -- who made this orange because "write" now, that is your favorite color.
