Our beloved girl, Lena Lu is 12! I recall the spring of her birth so vividly because it was a cool spring similar to how it has been this year to date. We had no idea she was going to make an early appearance and were going about our life expecting a June baby. But God (and Lena) had other plans. Ever since that day we've been blessed to know her. She is tender and strong, smart and compassionate. She is a deep thinker but also ever so happy to spend hours in books or imaginative play. She's so musical and artistic but also a hard worker in her studies. She is such a good Mama to her cats and to siblings and just on the cusp of womanhood she is a capable cook and babysitter! At 12 Lena loves order and routine, quiet and contemplative space to think and ponder. But she is so happy to romp in the woods, wade through the stream and get muddy too. Her hobbies include fiddle music, fairy gardens, herbal medicine, lots of dolls and dollhouse play, chicken rescuing and ballet. She loves to dress up as historical figures, loves a good tea party and can make Levi laugh like no other. Lena has continued to deal with Lyme with courage and perseverance in spite of difficult symptoms at times and the Lord has grown her abundantly in the last year! We love you Lena Susan and pray that God will bless you now and in all the days of your life. Happy birthday dear girl!
