McKenzies Birthday

McKenzie is now officially FOUR years old! It's such a fun age of excitement and magic! A few things about Miss McKenzie:

She is full of personality! There is no hiding if she is tired, or cranky, or excited! She is stubborn and can't be talked out of many things, but she's also sweet and compassionate too.

She loves to learn! School is one of her favorite things! She also loves to read and asks so many questions about how things work. Right now, she's trying to figure out driving, asking me why the cars drive between the lines and how they take turns at the intersections. It's amazing to see her little mind go (and how she picks up the little details!)

She is a ham! She loves attention and has a hard time sharing the spotlight! Even though she adores and protects her little sister (who idolizes her) she gets frustrated when Alli's the center of attention and does her best to upstage her.

She is currently in love with firemen thanks to a safety program at school. She knows how to stop, drop and roll, knows where to meet if there is a fire and will gladly demonstrate how to crawl below the smoke. Other potential careers: gymnastics - the girl cannot go an hour without flipping or somersaulting, chef - she loves to help in the kitchen and comes running when she hears the mixer turn on, photographer - she still loves taking pictures and 'scrapbooking', and artist - paint, markers, crayons, clay? She loves it all!

We love you, Z!
