Kinley is FIVE!

10 Things We Love About Kinley.....As She Celebrates Her 5th Birthday

10. Is Mommy's favorite shopping buddy.

9. Is our little songbird. Kinley is always singing. She will make up songs as she goes, and occasionally one can hear something that sounds familiar. Her Grandpa Bryner made her her own personal microphone, speaker and all.

8. Loves to clean. (That's my girl!) When Kinley cleans, it has to stay clean or she gets very upset that someone may be messing up what she worked very hard to clean up.

7. Can color coordinate anything with a princess. For example: Belle is yellow. Kinley will find everything, I mean everything, in her room that is yellow and put them in a very neat, organized pile. In this pile one might find play dishes, puzzle pieces, blankets, shoes, blocks, balls, books, jewelery, etc, etc, etc. Snow White is red. Sleeping Beauty is pink. Cinderella is blue. Jasmine is purple. Finally, Ariel is green. Often, I will walk into her bedroom to find six colorful piles of stuff.

6. Knows everything about princesses. One day, McKay was teasing her, as all big brothers do, that she didn't know how to add and subtract or spell or read. Dennis decided to turn the tables on him and started asking him questions about various princesses. He did not know most of the answers, but to Kinley's delight, she knew something that her big brother did not.

5. Is a beautiful little dancer. Kinley loves to dance. At this years spring dance recital, I overheard many mom's encouraging their daughters to watch Kinley or stand by her, because she knew the dances so well.

4. Can sing a song naming all of the states of the United States in alphabetical order. Kinley can also sing a song naming all of the oceans. This is something that would take me a very long time to duplicate.

3. Kinley's favorite colors are pink and purple.

2. Absolutely loves and adores her daddy. Kinley has to often fight with Keaton for her turn to sit and cuddle with dad.

1. Has the most beautiful smile that lights up her eyes and whole face. Kinley is our beautiful little Princess.

Happy Birthday my Princess! I love you!
