Our Phoebe bird is six! What a marvel she is. She's tender and loving with a kick of fiesty energy. She can "talk the hind leg off a mule". She is starting to read and draw some really lovely people. She is a good encourager and a very loved big sister and little sister. Phoebe has an incredible ear for music and has figured out how to play Bach Inventions on her own. She can speak French and German and plays piano and recorder. This year she really came into her own as the chicken whisperer. She loves her flock well. Phoebe loves fruit and veggies and "snacky" lunches. She is a wonderful ballet dancer and loves to play in imaginary lands with her fellow actors. She is potty training Levi now and has learned to get him dressed and do diaper changes. What a girl! Phoebe loves being outside, in the vegetable garden, in the fairy garden or mud kitchen, getting muddy and gathering wildflowers or watching the birds. She is really great with numbers and is also learning to be a good cook! Phoebe is our darling girl who is fast becoming a big girl now with a big and beautiful heart. She loves Jesus and asks so many good and hard questions about the world she lives in. How we pray for a good year and for many blessings as she grows and learns and lives. Happy birthday birdie! We took a trip to Crystal Cave together on your day and enjoyed a Beatrix Potter themed cake!
