Happy Birthday my Maylee baby!

5 yrs old! Yer tall enough you don't look 5 tho.

Just missed the kindergarten cut off, have to wait until next year.

Bummer, you can't go to kindergarten with your cousin Gunner.

But you can go to kindergarten with the twins next year.

I got you a white Build-A-Bear you can dress up. It came with the disney pink dress, big girl underwear with Minnie Mouse on it and the Minnie Mouse ears with veil. I also bought a Happy Birthday cupcake for the bear to hold when you opened the present too.

I gave you some money and you went and picked out some skates and a helmet for the bear today on your birthday. Hopefully you got to go mini golfing with your grandparents and a few cousins to celebrate today.

I was thinking about my Aunt Patsy and how much she has influenced me in my life choices and how much I want her to be involved in my future choices. I hope I can influence you my dear Maylee, even if in just a tiny way, like Patsy did for me.
