Hailey Turns 10!

Today is Hailey's 10th birthday. We are actually returning home from our vacation, but I wanted to do a blog in honor of her birthday. So here is me trying to do this from my phone. I will write about our vacation over the next couple weeks. Hailey has always been such a blessing to our family. I sometimes feel bad for her being right between Ashley and Josh, I think sometimes she gets lost in the shuffle. But at the same time, I think her position in our family has taught her responsibility, independence, and compassion. She is at the age now where at times we see the silly little girl and at other times we see a maturing person. We are so proud of and amazed at the wonderful young person she is becoming. I hope to cherish those little girl moments because I know I will see them a lot less often with each passing year. I hope my precious Hailey has a great birthday and a wonderful year.
