Happy 3rd birthday, my sweet, smart, and beautiful daughter! You have grown so much this past year and it's been so fun watching you learn and grow. You bring lots of sunshine to our lives.
This year, you wanted a Minnie Mouse Birthday party. We had it at our house and it was probably the last birthday party we'll have at this house before we move to the farm house. You had a blast! You had 4 friends come and a few of their siblings. Your cousin, Avery, ended up in the hospital due to RSV so she wasn't able to make it. We played games, ate some fun Disney themed food, and had a yummy cake and cupcakes. I surprised you with a giant Minnie Mouse walking balloon, we decorated your bedroom, and took you to Chuck E Cheese on your birthday for lunch.

Your 3 year check-up with your doctor went great. She asked you questions, you answered well and when you were unsure you had the cutest expression. You spelled your name easily, quickly, and clearly. She was impressed! You also told her you want to be a doctor when you grow up. When she asked if you wanted to take care of grown-ups or babies, you said babies. It was so sweet and she loved your answers! You are growing great! You gained 7 lbs and grew 4.25 inches since last year! Praise God, you have never had a fever or been sick where you needed medicine. You've had a runny nose a few times, maybe from allergies, or something else. We are just thankful you are healthy and happy.

Weight: 33 lbs (75%)
Height: 3 ft, 2 in (75%)
Head: 49.5 cm
Grace, you are one of the most kind and thoughtful people I know. I love how you are willing to share, comfort, and love others. You are very bright for you age and speak clearly. You love to help those in need and are very precious to us. We hope your love for God, Jesus, and others always continues to grow. We love you very much!
Love,
Mom
