Wow! Ella you are 5! I can’t believe it! I remember the first time I saw and met you….right when I walked in the door from getting picked up at the airport Eric put you in my arms. I thought, “wow you are my niece.” I absolutely fell in love with you the minute I saw you El. You are such a fun kid! I love playing, talking, doing whatever with you! You are so smart too. So incredibly smart! I love hearing and seeing all the things you can do! I have learned a lot from you too….to be patient, to really enjoy the little things in life and to be silly! I hope that you have had a GREAT birthday and Uncle Jakin and Auntie Mandie love you TONS!!
This past summer at Fish Trap Weekend
