Cora's family party and a letter from mommy and daddy

And if a Cinderella party wasn't enough, she got to have a second princess party with her family on Sunday - a whole birthday weekend!

To Cora Cristina, on her 3rd birthday
Cora Bean, we love you SO incredibly much! You are truly a light to our lives and that is why we call you "The Sunshine". We can't believe our baby girl is 3 now, but we are so proud of you and so blessed to have you in our lives. We love your strong will, your independence and your sassy, spunky little personality (though we admit these things do challenge us sometimes!). We also love that you are amazingly sweet and sensitive, you are such a little care taker, snuggler, kind friend and helper. You are also quite the funny girl and keep us laughing!
Things you are loving right now are playing with your brother (such sweet friends), dancing and dance class, performing for anyone who will watch and getting up on stage at every chance! You love animals, especially baby ones and your doggy, Boggs. You love babies, both real and pretend, princesses and "pocky pollets" (ie Polly Pockets).
Cora, we are also so very proud of you and your love for Jesus! We are so excited that you have asked Him into your heart and that you chose to do this. We see Him shining through you and love to hear the sweet prayers you speak to Him.
Cora our prayer for you is that your love for Jesus would just grow and grow and that you would always remain by His side. Lord we pray that you would watch over this girl, as she is yours, please protect her and keep her safe and healthy. We pray that You would also continue to bless the relationship between Wyatt and Cora, as they are such amazing friends and we are so thankful for that. Thank you so very much Lord for the opportunity to raise this precious little girl and call her our daughter, You have truly blessed us!
In Jesus' Name,
Amen
