Dear Teagan,
You are four years old today. These past four years have flown by and you have transformed from a tiny, little baby to a little girl in an instant. We have so many happy memories with you and we can't wait to see what the future holds for you. You are a sweet, thoughtful little girl and a loving, caring big sister. Your language and vocabulary amazes us every day and you carry on a conversation like you are one of the grownups. You have just started showing an interest in Princesses and you were thrilled to get two rapunzel dolls, a rapunzel book, a rapunzel CD, dress up clothes, and a princess doll accessory set for your birthday. You brought your rapunzels in their new doll crib to bed with you. I could hear you in your room singing the song from the movie when Rapunzel's hair glows. I didn't even know you knew the words, but as usual you surprise me with your knowledge every day so I am not surprised that you have picked that up too! We love you with every ounce of our being. You made us parents and you will always hold a special place in our hearts for that and for so many other reasons. We are excited to throw you a special friend party this weekend and I hope that day is just as special as today and Saturday were.
Love always and forever,
Mommy and Daddy
We had a special birthday dinner at Red Robin, followed by frozen yogurt at a new self-serve frozen yogurt bar. Teagan picked mango froyo with sprinkles on top. Declan begged everyone for repeated tastes of their froyo and enjoyed every last one. Mame joined us for our special evening, too. After our fun evening out we came home to open gifts and Teagan enjoyed playing with them all before bedtime.
