 Our sweet, lovely, laid-back, smart, sensitive little girl turns five today!  Laurel Ann was born early on a Sunday morning in just three short hours and turned out to be the easiest baby we had.  Once she came home, she was perfectly content to be part of the family!  God placed her just perfectly in the middle-she is a great younger sister and loves her older sister fiercely and is the perfect big sister to Levi, helping him learn and grow.  From infancy, Laurel has been very even keeled without huge changes in her emotions.  However, she is the most loyal, grateful, fun little girl who brings such joy to everyone she gives her heart to.  She also demands your whole heart if you are going to be in her life.  Laurel is definitely our most stubborn child who knows what she wants; at the same time, she is our sweet little girl who just melts to pieces if she experiences injustice or hurt caused to her or someone she loves.  Laurel is a tiny little girl who sometimes uses it to her advantage...."I'm too little to pick up my room".  She loves hugs and Barbies and swinging.  Her favorite foods are hamburgers and donuts and pepperoni.  She has excelled so much in her first year of preschool; her handwriting is quite amazing and she is doing great with her numbers.  Laurel does not have a need to be the center of attention (which is very difficult for me to understand) but her personality draws people to her.  We love you more than you can know, Laurel Ann!  Praise God that we get to be your parents!
