Guess who's turning nine today?? Yes, it's our prissy princess!! Ellie celebrates her ninth birthday today, and we are so thankful that the Lord blessed us with our 'all-girl' little girl on March 2, 2000!
I actually had to go into the hospital on February 29th (yes, leap year) for pre-mature labor (usual for me), but I'm so glad that the contractions eased off and I was able to go home for another day or two. I really wanted her to have a real birth date every year, instead of every four! LOL
Ellie enjoys art, climbing trees, playing with her puppy, Barbies, and her favorite move is The Little Mermaid. So see, she is almost all girly girl. But when you live out in the country, climbing trees is mandatory! And too, with three brothers, she has to be just a teensy little bit of a tomboy thrown in for good measure to hang with all of them. And she does enjoy fishing too, she says.
Happy Birthday, Ellie! We love you so much and we're blessed to have you as our little girl! God is good!
What a lovely picture of you and your new puppy dog Skipper..... John and I are so pleased to meet him. We hope you had a very special birthday.....
What beautiful pictures of you Mom has compiled in this your birthday tribute..... you are indeed a gorgeous princess. Love you loads - Marion & John xx
I'm a very happily married pastor's wife, former schoolteacher-turned-homeschool mom of six wonderful blessings, and freelance writer--and we live in the great state of Georgia! I'm a southern girl through and through...but most importantly, I'm a child of the King! We have just finished up our twelfth year of homeschooling, and our two oldest have now graduated! This is my place to record thoughts about homemaking, Classical-Charlotte Mason based homeschooling, writing around the fringes of family life, and more...so welcome to my little corner of the world!
Ellie with her new puppy, Skipper!
