I love 6

So far I'm in love with six.

This age brings Lex:

independence
happiness
Kindergarten
self confidence
understanding that a mom can be a beast and there is a REASON for it
extreme love for her parents
doing real chores
loves entertaining little kids

First ballet

Entertaining Chaser
This age brings me:

happiness
joy
relaxation
less chores
more time having fun rather than being on "mom duty"
less time entertaining little kids
doing stuff with her that I like to do ALSO

basically more of this...

Lexi pretty much rules these days.
Except when she doesn't.

I'm in love with your Lexi at any age, but I am happy six is being kind to you. I hope 1 week is as thoughtful! :-)

What if you had 6 six year olds? Then what?

(Lexi - you are the cutest 6 year old EVER - except for maybe Rylee - shhhhh)

Seriously, if my girl is one tenth as cool as Lex, I will be set for life.

I think you can be pretty certain that Lex is going to get up with baby Lucy in the night, so you don't even skip a beat. Between her and Travis you'll be getting more sleep than ever. Actually, can I borrow her for a few weeks? My Lucy would love to have a big girl to play with, and it sounds like the girl can run a vacuum.

Oh good - we only have 13 days left of 5.

Just think in another 6 years you get to do it all over again with Lucy!!!!! By then Lexi will be 12 and maybe 12 is twice the fun of 6.
