Keira is 6!!!!

The morning of her birthday!  The kids love waking up to their door decorated!



I can't believe Keira turned 6 on July 27th, or that she is about to begin 1st grade.   Over these past 6 yrs, we have watched Keira grow from a little baby into this little girl, who thinks she is older than 6!  She is quite the girl - strong personality, confident in who she is, knows what she wants, does great in school, a natural talent in sports, sings well, and a joy to us.  We try our best to teach her God's word and talk about Jesus and what He did for us, for we are all born sinners.  I love this girl more than all the stars in the sky!  We pray that the Lord will mold her and use her for His kingdom.  I have tried to teach her that this life is not about us, regardless of what the world says, but about Jesus!  We are here to glorify Him!  I pray she will be a child of the King one day and I can't imgine anything better than to see your child be freed from their sins! 

Brock and Keira had a joint party back in June, but we still celebrate their special days.  I always want my babies to know they are special.  On July 27th, Mamaw, Brock, Keira, and I went to her 6 yr check up. She is in the 90% for weight and >95% for height. Still always amazes me at her phyiscal stats!  Best thing about the check-up, other than her being healthy, was hearing no shots on this visit and no more until 11 yrs. Yea!!
We then went to the mall and did some clothes shopping, ate lunch, got her ears pierced (they grew up after we left them out one day, a few months ago), had ice cream and came home!  Good day! 
Thursday evening, the grandparents came over to celebrate and we ate supper, had cupcakes, opened gifts, and enjoyed our time together.  Keira was beaming the entire evening!!   We love our girl and so thankful to God for our first gift!!  Happy 6th Birthday!!
