She is 3! Our Zoe is Growing Up!

It is shocking to me to think that it was 3 years ago today that we finally got to hold our beautiful little girl and welcome her into the world. She is growing up so fast and becoming quite the little lady.

She loves pink, babies (real and pretend), singing, helping in the kitchen, reading books and talking, though we sometimes need Malachi to translate :). She is very quiet and shy in new settings and takes a while to warm up to new people and yet she is also tough and has no problem sticking up for herself when teased by her older brother. She has spunk and is not afraid to let us know how she feels about something. We should have anticipated this with a 4 hour labor and naming her Zoe which means 'life' in Greek. She has a mind of her own and keeps us on our toes as parents. At the same time she makes us laugh and brings such joy!

Zo-ster, Zoe Girl, Sweet Pea...you are a bigger-than-life blessing. We love you! Happy 3rd Birthday!
