Being the middle child is a big job. An older sibling to catch up with and a younger one to entertain! Compassionate, kind-hearted, patient and a lot of love, Elise wears the role perfectly! Today she turns five. Kind of makes me feel old. I remember her as an 18 month old, speaking all to clearly and a-lot (something she has not yet grown out of!), cute little belly and a mimic of her big sister. Life within that time has changed and so has she. She has grown from a toddler into a little girl who starts kindergarden in the fall. I can’t believe it. Elise you are truly a blessing to us, and I am so thankful for you and the way you continue to make our family laugh!
