Samantha is 6!


My baby girl is 6!
But sometimes she acts like she's 16 😉
She has grown into a smart and independent little lady. This past year brought some big changes and she handled them very well. Samantha graduated from Goddard School and started her kindergarten last September. New school, new teachers, and many new friends! Oh, and let's not forget riding to school on a bus! She's been loving every minute of it!

There were also some changes in her appearance! Because one day (under daddy's watch 🙄) she decided she needed to cut her bangs so she could look like one of her favorite characters - Mal from The Descendants! That did not go well, as you can imagine. We had no choice but to cut her bangs to camouflage the disastrous haircut she gave herself.
However, as we say in Poland- "Nie ma tego złego, co by na dobre nie wyszło" (Every cloud has a silver lining!) and I think her new hairstyle suits her and we all love it!

Happy Birthday, My Love! You fill our lives with so much joy and happiness!
We adore your fun personality and great sense of humor, your persistence, curiosity and eagerness to learn. 
We love you to the moon and back! ❤️

And a very Happy Birthday to Nana Sheila!
