Happy 4th Birthday,

We have a tall blondish 4 year old walking around our house today!  Who's kid is she, anyway? Tall and blond? Oh yes, her father's!  Honestly, there are times when I look at her beautiful blue-ish hazel eyes next to mine, and I wonder how on earth I ever got so lucky.  Not because Kyle's pure Swedish blood obviously prevailed over my mixed (mutt, as Kyle would say) blood, but because Hadley is so loving, silly, and sweet and so obviously worth the wait.  She fills our days with true laughter, made up games, tight squeezes, random songs, and so many rhymes that we often feel like we live in a Dr.Seuss book.  We love you, Hadley B, and are SO thankful for your first four years and look forward to so many more!
