My beautiful daughter has just turned 11! Can you believe it!? I most certainly cannot! I remember when she was just a precious little baby girl. Oh where does the time go?! Our family has been so blessed by Jocelyn. She is such a sweet, loving, helpful person whom we appreciate more and more everyday. Ever since her little brother Nathanael has joined the family Jocelyn has taken on the role of "little mama". She loves her brother so much and he absolutely ADORES her. This year we decided to really make her year special, it all started in Chicago back in August. We took her to the American Girl Place, then we gave her a new bedroom with a new makeover! She helped us pick out a new bedspread and colors for her new room. She has moved past the cute pink and purple butterflies and has now chosen to go with a nice brown and teal colored decor. Jocelyn is excelling in so many areas of her life. She is really improving in her math, finished her handwriting book and is now learning how to type. Jocelyn is learning many daily living skills and excels in all of them. She really loves to bake too and is quite good at it! Also Jocelyn has taken up piano and has picked it up and practices on her own daily! We are so proud of Jocelyn and just love and appreciate her so much!

She requested crepes for her birthday breakfast, and tacos for dinner. She chose one friend (Katelyn) and they were treated to a manicure by mom and had a sleep over! It was a fun birthday!
