Elli Turns Three

Every picture has a story. Every story comes together to create this chapter. Elli rocked her two year old year. Elli was as sweet and easy as I could ask for. Elli made the terrible twos look like a walk in the park. If the next year is anything like the last year, we are in for a treat! 

Elli shows compassion for life. Elli loves the people that she is surrounded by, her village. She has always felt attachment to her village. Being around just her mommy and daddy isn't enough for her. She loves her fan club often created by her big sisters' friends. Elli loves any adult that smiles at her. Chances are if you smile at her, she will ask to eat breakfast at your house. 

Elli loves imaginary play. Elli loves giving kisses out to those that matter. 

Elli loves exploring new parks and playgrounds. She loves to try and tackle new heights without qualm.

Elli doesn't know her age, and will do whatever those around her do. Elli's 'best friends' are usually four times her age.

Elli's connection with her cousin is special and unique.

Elli's sweet tooth has no end.

Elli is fearless.

Elli loves to 'help' out in all household chores.

Elli, even though adventurous, still knows how to kick back and enjoy life.

Elli, like her sisters, loves to read. She also loves to have an audience to read to. 

Elli makes the cutest oompa loompa EVER!!!!!

Elli is a twirler. If her clothes don't twirl they aren't good enough to wear. If her PJs don't twirl they aren't good enough for her.

But this twirler still knows how to shoot a spider web your way.

Elli is a self-made princess.

Elli is a keeper of the Orthner genetics. 

Elli is a lover of her thumb and hair to twirl. Remember, twirling is a must in her life.

Elli loves being a little sister. They can't go far without her creating their shadow.

Well, Elli is just plain super.

Elli on your birthday tomorrow, may all you wishes come true. May you stay sweet. May you continue to approach life with such zest. May life give you twirls up to your standards, and when it doesn't may you use your faithful connection to your village to support you through it all. If you continue life with greatness you approached two with, life will treat you as great as you treat it.

I love you, beautiful! Happy 3rd birthday!
