Birthday Princess Elise

My little Elise is three. Elise requested her birthday tiara for days before and after her actual birthday.

Yesterday she kept asking if she was turning three and I told her that now she is already three. Her face lit up, she jumped up and down and exclaimed, "I am?!! That is so exciting!!" I adore this sweet girl's love for life. When she is not getting her feelings hurt by her big brother, she is the happiest girl with a smile that will light up the room and your heart. She has a personality and then some--as evidenced in the photos. She is not afraid to tell me no--and I absolutely cannot figure out how to get her to listen. I have caught her cutting her own hair & doll's hair, coloring on walls, floors, her stomach, toys and I often find her sneaking gum or snacks when she thinks I am not looking.

I am heartbroken to be sending Grey off to kindergarten, but looking forward to my Elise time. I love doing her hair, painting fingernails together and talking about princesses and babies.

This is her first year for the birthday interview:
