Our Hannah Joy turned 6 years old yesterday. To celebrate, she picked our plans for the day.
After some extended family spoiling, we headed to her favorite beach spot with friends.
And while we never once stepped foot on the beach because everyone was fascinated with the pool, we had an absolute blast.

Hannah even decided she wanted to start learning how to swim.

And our new six year old was all smiles going under and coming up from the water as she learned to swim some, thanks to the encouragement of Elizabeth. (For serious, she had water pouring out of her smile. Hehe. This kid just LOVES life.)
Hanny love,
You are an absolute joy. You find such giggling delight of life. You are so full of energy and love for life that it’s easy for the rest of us to love life more when we are with you. Your laugh, child, is one of my favorite sounds.
You work hard, baby, and pour your whole heart into all that you do. Whether it is your school work, learning to ride your bike, learning to swim, dancing in the living room or jumping on the trampoline, you are ALWAYS burning a TON of energy at 150% commitment.
You love deeply and hug often. And I love that you still snuggle Mommy, even though I know you have ants in your pants.
You are almost always loud (but in a fun way) and have something to contribute to every conversation.
And I love how curious you are about life. You just have to know why things are spelled different ways. You just have to read one more book. You just have to understand how to put together a hard puzzle faster. You cannot wait to figure out why things work the way they do and it’s so fun to have no idea what question you will ask next, but to know for certain that a next question is being thought up every few minutes.
Hannah Banana, you are an absolutely amazing little girl and Mommy is just so terribly proud of you. We all are so proud of you, love. And it is an honor and a privilege to get to encourage the wonderful little lady that you are becoming. Never stop laughing, baby. And keep moving mountains.
🎉🎉🎉Happy sixth birthday, Hannah!!! 🎉🎉🎉
We love you so. (Even if Niblet looks less thrilled in this picture.)
Love,
Mommy (and I think I can speak on behalf of Daddy and your sisters too. 😉)
