Charli Adele: Seven Year Update:

And just like that, another trip around the sun has come and gone in a blink of an eye. The years are truly flying right by us and it seems like it won't be slowing down any time soon. Our baby girl is SEVEN you guys... We have a SEVEN year old, that just doesn't quite seem fair or possible, but here we are, celebrating our baby girl who has truly grown into such a beautiful big kid! As much as we would love to keep her little forever, we absolutely love watching her grow up and see the person she is becoming! 

Charli Adele,

Where do I even begin sweet girl. First and foremost, mommy & daddy couldn't be prouder of everything you do and everything you accomplished throughout this year. You never cease to amaze us. You are growing into such a beautiful young lady and everyone who meets you couldn't love you more. You totally rocked First Grade and we know just how excited you are to start Second! You are smart beyond your years and the way your brain works truly amazes your daddy and I. To this day, you are still the most logical little girl we have ever met... You overthink, question, and analyze everything. As much as it annoys me sometimes with you asking ALL the questions, don't ever stop. Your personality is truly one of a kind... You can be a total spit fire at home with us, but out in public, at school, or any social event, you are the sweetest most caring and loving little girl. You are a peacemaker and want everyone to get along and be happy. We have never received one bad report from any of your teachers, in fact they are always out of this world perfect... That they could never imagine a mean bone in your body!  

We are so excited to watch you grow this year and to see where this year takes you! It is going to be a big year with your brother joining you at School. I hope and pray that you watch out for your little brother and take care of him at that big school. Mommy and Daddy love you so much honey and we hope you have the best year yet! Happy 7th Birthday sweet girl!
