Happy Birthday Pipsqueak!

Our youngest daughter, Pipsqueak, turned three last month, but life has kinda been busy so I haven't been able to do her birthday post.  Sorry Pipsqueak, please forgive mama!  I may not be cut out to be a "blogger" or even a "homesteader who journals".  I hang my head in shame. 

Our little Pipsqueak was born early in the morning on Memorial Day three years ago.  I can't believe my tiny little lady is growing up so fast.  She may be small, but she is mighty and our life with her is exciting, funny, and oh so sweet.  We had a small family dinner and a butterfly birthday cake.

Our little garden helper. She is wetting down the compost so it didn't blow away before daddy could scoop it up. She can be dangerous with a garden hose!

Coloring at the Heart of America Resource Center. This a museum that is still a work in progress, but will be fantastic when completed. This is copied from their website, but this is their mission statement: To establish a center which provides Biblically-based science education, science resources, and opportunities to experience science in the context of nature. To support and network with other organizations that honor the Creation/Gospel message.

Kitchen helper with her own sense of style.

She is already asking when it will be her birthday again!  Wishing you a fun and happy 3rd year Pipsqueak.  Mama and Daddy love ya to pieces and you are such a large and important part of this family and we couldn't imagine life without you and your precious little smile.
