Kate is 4 years old!

Well, today is a monumental day at our house because Kate turned.  It is monumental to her because 4 is BIG, of course, and it is monumental to me because there have been days this year when I didn’t think she would make it to see 4!  But I am so glad to see 4 as the 3’s are not my favorite age! :)  She is a beauty and can be tons of fun but boy does she ever have a strong opinion about the way things should be done (her way, of course!).  I know that God is using her to grow me in SO many areas...patience and consistency to name a few...but we are so blessed to have her!  I couldn’t love her anymore if I tried!

I have updated our www.onehappyhome.com website so you might want to check it out when you get time.  I made it on a mac and it seems like the homemade mac websites take forever to load, so you’ll have to let me know if it does and I’ll try to figure out a different way of posting stuff.  I wanted to do the website so I would have an easy way to share photo and video updates since blogger and youtube are always blocked and a hassle for me to get to sometimes.  So if you have a chance, you should check out the movies page for sure.  There is a video on it of Kate explaining to me today what it is to be 4!  It’s pretty cute!  Also, the other video is of the girls scootering through our house while singing a nice little Christmas jingle for your listening enjoyment!  Yes, that’s right...they have their scooters indoors and scooter all around our first floor – it is the one great thing about hard marble floors and it gets a lot of pent up energy out on cold days!

So you can see the videos on the movies page at:  http://www.onehappyhome.com/One_Happy_Home/Movies/Movies.html.  Hopefully it will work but let me know if it doesn’t.  

Have a great day.  And happy, happy birthday to our sweet baby Kate!
