This is a little late-
But better late than never. :D
My Beautiful Sweet Samantha;
I love you so very much! More than life itself! You are my very sweet very special one and only Sami Leigh. You are such a big part of me little girl.
I can't believe I have a 4yr old!!
You have always been so smart for your age, (you talk like a 15yr old) ;)
You have the BEST memory!! You know all the words to just about every primary song I can sing. You have me sing it a few times to you and then just jump in with all the right words and usually to the best tune. You amaze me!
You love LOVE love your little brothers! If either one is crying you are almost always more than happy to sing/talk to them to get them to stop. You are so patient with Roo. He's been getting on your nerves more lately as he's getting older and liking to do what you do more, but you're very patient and remind him all the time that he's just a baby and doesn't understand so you cant get mad at him. I smile all the time watching you tell him who's the "grown-up".
You are so very social everytime I turn around you have more and more "friends" sometimes I worry about this whole "no talking to strangers" bit. Last Sunday I came back to sacrament from feeding Luke to find you gone. Daddy said you went out to get me, and being the mature 4yr old you are, he let you go... needless to say I found you just before church got out playing on the stage with some older kids from the other ward. You told me you came to find me but found new friends instead. (UGH!!) Then while at a restaurant with family you decided to take it upon yourself to find the waitress and tell her you needed frosting on your pie. Thank goodness she brought you back after you told her. You're showing me how much more vigilant we need to be in watching you sweet daughter.
You started dance this fall. You love your new friends, but we've had to remind you quite a few times that you go to learn to dance not to play games. Your teachers are very good with you and encourage not throwing a fit when things don't go your way ;D We're trying to work on that a lot at home as well lately.
You are very vigilant about saying your prayers every night, its refreshing for me to see that maybe I'm not failing completely in raising you if at least your praying. But sometimes, like today, you prayed for Heavenly Father to please bless you to play out in the snow.... sneaky little stinker!
"but mom, I blessed Heavenly FaZer (not sp error) to let me play out in the snow!"
You still have "Boobie" and now "That" as well whom are your very bestest of friends but sometimes (a lot) tend to get you in trouble by telling you to do naughty things. (we're still working on how to punish them)
Anyway, I do love you so much my sweet Sami Sam!! (and all your many mood swings and personalities as well!!)
