Your hair has grown in a hurry, you have gotten taller and outgrown shoes in a hurry and your speech and knowledge have seemed to quadruple. You recently got 6 inches cut of your hair for your first cut since you were a baby. Thankfully you still have your sweet little lisp when you talk and we love it. When you say like it come out "yike" or instead of love you say "yove" and I cherish it. You are game for anything Haven, you are the first to want to try something new. Foods, adventures, riding a big bike, doing flips on the trampoline or even climbing the cabinets you do it all first and once your older brother sees you survived then he will try. You are fearless and that scares me tremendously! You asked for a big bike from Santa Claus this Christmas and he delivered a Frozen themed big bike to you. You jumped on it in a hurry and were out riding in no time! We put you in gymnastics this year and you fearlessly jumped into class and were trying out balance beams and different techniques without hesitation while other kids in your class were sitting on the sidelines crying.
Haven you love big! There is no doubt in anyone's mind where they stand with you because you tell everyone how much you love them. You give the sweetest kisses with your big full lips and you hug with all your might. Your favorite person is your baby sister who you think is your personal baby doll. Even though she is over half your size now you still want to pick her up, put her in chairs, have her lay in bed with you or push her around in your baby stroller. She is getting more independent on her own though and does not go willingly to which you try and make her cooperate all the more and it turns into a bit of a squabble. Your love for her is just so big you don't quite know how to handle her not wanting to be your plaything. You tell me though she is your best friend and I hope yall will always remain that way!
You are extremely protective of those you love Haven. At your preschool you are in class with your cousins Merritt and Whitten. The teachers recently told us that sometimes Whitten will try to mess with Merritt some to which you will step in to protect Merritt, when he sees you in the middle of a squabble then he comes back in to try and help you out. I can only imagine the scene unfolding but you have learned early my girl that you don't let others mess with "your people!" I know the day will come when Merritt will have to fight people off in your honor but for now you are doing it for him. You love school so much and love to learn and try new things. You have come home and practiced your writing and letters and can already spell out and write your own name.
Haven you are so full of energy you never slow down! You love to sing and dance around the house usually in some sort of princess dress or wonder woman costume. I love to hear you sing and it doesn't take you more than hearing a song once or twice before you sing the lyrics on your own. I would love for music to be a passion you could pursue in your life. You are always goofing off coming up with silly faces or voices or walks. You have taught Rory some funny little walks and keep us all laughing. Everett thinks you are the funniest person ever and often has to run to the bathroom to keep from peeing his pants when you are making him laugh. Your laugh by the way is the absolute best!! Its loud and not girly at all and just hearing it makes the other person laugh. You laugh with your whole body!
You are very much into babies still and have had a Target version American Girl doll but currently have no interest preferring only your baby "Annie." You sleep with about 15 little things on your bed and check to make sure they are each there every night but your baby is your most cherished. You also must have your two dream blankets that you have had since you were a baby. When Dad or I are going to the store you are always the one to ask to go with us and love to push the cart and grab the items needed. Sweet Haven you are the one that loves to come and snuggle with me in bed though and wants to be as close as possible. You are always wanting to be held or rocked still like a baby. I will often say to you "sweet girl" and you have started saying it back to me. For instance you said "thank you for my dinner sweet girl," or "I love you sweet girl mom!"
Haven Molly you are so cherished and loved! We adore you and are so grateful to get to be your parents! We are proud of you and can't wait (but do want to wait) to see what your future holds!
Happy Birthday our precious girl!!
