It seems impossible that our baby girl is 4 years old!  What joy she brings to our lives!  Everyday is full of fun and adventures with Hannah around.  

As always, here's a little of what she has been up to this year and some of the things she loves:

Some of these answers crack me up...and some of them were just true of that day, but many were accurate :)  Here are some more details:  

-she still loves her Bible...her favorite Bible story seems to always change.  Right now, she loves the story of Samson and the Good Samaritan.  

-She loves tv and playing on the computer and would do it all day if I would let her (I don't, she has time limits :)).  Her favorite shows are Dr. Suess, Super Why, and Word World.  She loves to play www.pbskids.com, www.starfall.com, and www.veggiestales.com.  

-She loves anything artsy...coloring, painting, cutting with scissors, etc.  

-She is learning to read...and doing quite well.  She knows LOTS of sight words and is pretty good at decoding CVC words.  (She also knows all of her letters and sounds)  

-Hannah counts to 14...she loves to count higher...but always misses that 15.  :)  

- she LOVES to pretend.  She loves to act out Bible stories, books, movies or pretend whatever comes to her mind.  She loves to play doctor and house.  She has a great memory and imagination!  

-She loves music..one of my favorite things is listening to her sing in the car.  

Boy I love this little girl...I could go on and on about her.  Looking forward to having a 4 year old..we have so much fun together!
