Happy Birthday Terra!

by Candi Evans

Terra is so excited to be turning 6! She told Grandma the other day that she is turning 6 1/2 on her birthday! I think it's because she has been waiting since Kessa's birthday in October for it to finally be her birthday! Terra is such a fun little dolly. She loves to snuggle and cuddle and give "Papa Bear" hugs, as she calls them. She wants to do everything the older girls do and gets very upset when they don't let her. She has never been one to watch Cinderella or Sleeping Beauty, she wants to watch High School Musical and real people movies, just like the bigger kids. She and her best friend, Ella, can sing you just about any of their songs and tell you all about the teen stars! It's so funny to listen to them!

Terra is just about to finish Kindergarten and has loved school! She is doing so good learning to read, but I think the best thing about school for her is being with her friends. There are lots of fun kids in her class and a couple of cute little boys that love to chase and have already spoken for her and Ella to dance with in 3rd grade because they will get to hold hands!!! She is definately a little social butterfly! Terra also loves to draw and color and write us cute little love notes. She is always giving us a new picture to display on the fridge! She loves her "American Dolls" and polly pockets and her Webkins animals. She also loves her "Silky", what she calls, her silky blanky. Whenever it needs to be washed, she has to have Kannon's to sleep with, so we go dig it out of his closet.

Terra is also a really good helper. After every Cowboy Sleep, she folds up blankets and puts them away. She is great at helping unload the dishwasher and folding towels, too! She is actually a pretty neat kid, she likes to have things situated just right and does really good at organizing her things. She loves to help whenever we are cooking, too. She loves avocados and if anyone else wants some, you have to be quick or she will eat the whole thing! She is having a Razzleberry Pie for her Birthday cake this year. That's another thing that you have to be quick about or she will probably eat the whole thing herself, too! She asked my Mom just out of the blue one day why she hadn't made her a cherry pie, so she ate a whole can of pie filling instead!!!

Terra is playing T-Ball this Spring. It is so fun to watch them! She gets this big grin on her face when she gets up to bat or does something good! She is our sweet little Dolly and we love her so much! I don't think I will know what to do next year with her in school all day! We love you, Princess!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Dad, Mom, Kannon, Kessa, & Abbie
