Happy Birthday to our second child, Kiera!
You are certainly our spunky darling, with a quick wit and even quicker tongue! The funny things you say keep me on my toes, such as calling your Daddy a "redneck" even though you don't know what it means! I adore your little legs, and grieve the loss of your baby chub. I love to watch you run and exert yourself, admiring that you try so hard to keep up with your lanky sister. Your hair is like your momma's, only more blond. I wish it didn't get tangles because then you'd let me brush it more! Your eyes sparkle with your fiesty spirit trying to escape! You know almost as many numbers as your sister, and pick up things quickly as you watch her learn. You love to get up in Isaac's face, loving on him and expressing your enthusaism. He can't wait to see you first thing in the morning, and I love how you will sit in his room, reading and singing to him. He will soon give you a run for your money, so it's good you are up to the challenge! Your smile is contagious, full of mischief and fun! You love to sing in a soft and high pitched voice, especially "the song that Faith sang last night..." (When I'm feeling sad...)
You are a challenge for me because you always seem to be a step ahead, cleverly thinking of how to get your way. But you are loving as well, cuddling on the couch and telling me how much you love me. You can't live without your sister, though you try to be as onery as you can! You love to watch me cook, do dishes yourself, play with the water and dirt. You and Melia play puppy and owner; you are almost always the owner!
While I'm afraid for you to grow too fast, I cannot wait to see what God does with your spicy personality! I hope to train you up in His Word, with a servant's heart for His Kingdom work. I pray you will learn to submit to authority with a smile on your face and joy in your heart, but without letting go of the spunk that is uniquely yours. I'm thankful God gave us you, such a colorful and exciting soul. You are a special splash of delight in our family, with an exuberant laugh that tickles our ears.
Happy Fourth Birthday, my sweet and spicy Kiera!

Beautiful! Your words and Kiera! Thank you for sharing with us. She is such an amazing little girl and we feel so blessed to know her as well as each of your family memebers. Happy Birthday Kiera!
Great way to sum up Kiera's life and personality to date. I'm sure it will mean a lot to her when she gets older.
