"now we are six" -- A.A. Milne


When I was one,
I had just begun.
When I was two,
I was nearly new.
When I was three,
I was hardly me.
When I was four,
I was not much more.
When I was five,
I was just alive.
But now I am six,
I'm as clever as clever.
So I think I'll stay six
now forever and ever."

Now We Are Six by A.A. Milne


Now you are six!  We celebrated your sixth with dear friends at a little park for kids.  It is a little park I remember going to when I was your age {Yes, vintage nostalgia seems to be the theme of the kid parties this year}.  You particularly loved riding rides with all your friends.  We enjoyed watching your new confidence emerge as you explored with sweet souls nearby.  No longer do you always need us close-by.  We are delighted to see your little spirit grow brave.
As the words of A.A. Milne so accurately state, "you are six and as clever as can be!"
Enjoy this wonderful year!

 "There is something you must always remember: You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think."  -- A.A. Milne
