Haidyn Turns 4!

I'm in disbelief that my girl is now 4! I am often reminded by my girl that she is indeed a BIG girl and no longer my baby. If she only knew, how wrong she is but for now I will give her the benefit of the doubt. With every passing day, I'm slowly realizing that though she may not look much like me her attitude is spot on to mine. There is definitely a power struggle between the both of us, but it would've been naive of me to assume that any of child of mine and Waymon's wouldn't be a shit from time to time.  Listening has gone out the window because of the fact that this little girl is too independent. She's learning everything her way or nothing at all. She surprises us every day as she introduces us to what she learned at school. She's fascinated by the world around her and questions everything and anything . She never settles for a simple answer because she craves to always know more.

Four questions for Haidyn's fourth birthday. 

1. When is your birthday and what would you like as a present? April 14! I want pokemon?

2. What do you want to be when you grow up? Puppy Doctor or a teacher!

3. Who are your best friends? Um Addi Parker

4. What is your favorite food ? STRAWBERRIES, blueberries anddddd fruit.

Four things I need Haidyn to remember at the moment. 

1. Your fashion sense is perf! I love that you have your own sense of style. I love that you put your own little two sense in what you're wearing and make it your own. You have your own vision of the perfect wardrobe and accessories. And who can't forget that you love your cowboy boots with just about everything you wear.

2. The fact that you're cooler than both of your parents at this age is not surprising to us, but it is definitely amazing to watch. Who else loves to sing , dance , play instruments and head bang all at the same time? You are the daredevil your Daddy always wanted by his side all while being my crazy partner in crime making sure I never give up. You look more and more like your Daddy everyday with your identical smiles and the fact that both of you love to prank Mama.

3. Your ability to turn every situation into a positive one is something you should never lose sight of.  You hate to see anyone sad or cry and the fact that you will stop dead in your tracks to ensure that no one is having a bad day is the sweetest thing . You will brighten their day by a compliment or just making them laugh. 

4. Keep dancing to your own beat. You feel what you feel and you're not afraid to let it show. You're not shy of letting your happiness show. Never let anyone in this lifetime or the next tell you that you shouldn't . Dance and sing until your heart is content and then dance a little more just because you can. You are different from anyone else and that's not a bad thing.

Happy Happy Birthday Anak ! Daddy, Mama, Ate Sass and Frankie love you so much!
