Happy Birthday, Eliza Claire!!

Please sit down!

I have something unbelievable to say!

Yesterday our sweet baby Eliza Claire turned FIVE years old!

I do not know how that happened.

She was JUST two.

To keep with tradition, we let Eliza choose a meal and a dessert!

What five year old chooses sauteed kale, bacon wrapped asparagus, baked chicken, cubed sweet potatoes, and cranberry applesauce?

We all were very glad she did! It was yummy!!

We have not seen our four favorite people in MUCH TOO LONG!

SO thankful that we are ALL well now!

Clyde’s baby sister was here too! I have a beautiful photo of her that I will add to this post someday when things are finalized!

After that yummy meal, Eliza opened her gifts.

We had a horse themed birthday!

For our horse crazy girl!

After Eliza opened all her gifts, she gave me a huge hug.

And then went around the room and gave everyone else a huge hug too.

Don’t miss what I just wrote there!

THIS IS HUGE.

And we do not take hugs for granted ONE BIT!

We put Eliza’s new horse shirt and horse necklace on right away!

Some boys got busy and helped Eliza build her horse lego set!

Then we had chocolate waffles, strawberries, ice cream, chocolate sauce and whipped cream for dessert!

Eliza always picks chocolate and strawberries for dessert!

Her Mama LOVES that!

We sang to our sweet baby –

and without any directions, Eliza blew all five candles out with one blow!

I think this was our best birthday bash yet!!

Eliza enjoyed it SO much!

Eliza seems SO grown up!

We are holding on tight!

Time does not stand still!

Stay little, sweet baby.

We LOVE YOU SO MUCH, Eliza Claire!!

Happy Birthday to you!!!

    Oh, I can’t believe it either! I can remember that first picture we saw of her, sweet baby, that inspired us to pray for her, and then learning that she was a Moschel!! God is so amazing. I am in awe of all he has done.

    Joshua was looking at the pictures and said, “That’s Eliza? She sure is big.” Yep, that’s what her mama said! Happy birthday, Eliza Claire! πŸŽ‚πŸ’πŸŽπŸ’πŸŽπŸŽ‰
