Quarantine Birthdays Q&As

APRIL! The month we look forward to every year because its the month we get to celebrate the BIRTHDAYS of ALL SIX of our girls. We had BIG EXCITING plans… but then COVID happened and we basically were on a ‘stayhome’ order and couldn’t go anywhere. Heartbreak!!! I hated this for our girls. But thankfully they were so understanding of the situation and we had a small intimate little birthday celebration for all them.

For this Birthday Blog, I decided to do a little Q&A with the girls. I made sure to have them answer alone, so I could get their real response and not a copy cat response from a sister, lol. It is funny to have them answer these questions and see what has changed..for most of them, their answers are pretty similar to the last ‘about me’ I did with them. So here goes… Starting with my first baby 🙂

Blayke – She still has such a sweet soul. She is always so thoughtful. The best big sister! She loves to learn, especially about all kinds of animals. This year has brought on a lot more confidence in her, and we have loved seeing this. She tried out volleyball this year and also got a guitar! She never stops surprising me with her wanting to know more and more everything.

Ava – Or as we like to say “A for attitude”. haha. This girl is the sassiest of all the girls and she also is still holding the title for the laziest. She is full of emotions and exaggerations.. but how we love ALL that that about her. She is sensitive, loves to cuddle, is so goofy and makes silly faces all the time and most of all…she LOVES to dance!

Olivia – Never stops making others laugh. She is goofy like Ava but in a different way. She wants everyone around her to notice her, but in a way where she make sure others know how fun and funny she is. She is the “adapter”… meaning she just goes with the flow and plays whatever anyone else it doing. However, she is super opinionated, lol. She has the best jolly laugh with the cutest two dimples.

Life in this little girls eyes is just straight up joy. She will make anyone and everyone fall in love with her instantly. She is goofy, soft spoken…. but still has that fire inside her when you make her mad.

Riley – Our little firecracker! She is so strong willed, opinionated and ALWAYS RIGHT 😉 Small and mighty, for sure! She loves lizards and doesn’t go a day without catching one to play with. She doesn’t know a stranger…she is such a people persona and wants to make sure people know her. She is brilliant and way too smart for her own self.

I laughed almost at every response from each girl….because they were either on point in my ‘mom perspective’ answer OR it was so random and possibly the first thing that popped in their head type of answer. LOL!

Well…. until we can have a real birthday celebration, cheers to Blayke turning 9 and the quints turning 5 years old! I can’t believe how fast they are growing. I think the biggest challenge we are facing currently as parents to 6 girls is all these lovely sassy attitudes, LOL! And that pretty much sums up what I image every year we will deal with #lifewithallgirls

No matter what, I still thank God for giving me this extraordinary life. I am challenged everyday but also feel like I fail everyday. However, I know the Lord gave me this life for a purpose. I know I don’t, and won’t, have it all together everyday BUT I know the Lord just needs me to KEEP trying to better myself everyday.

To my baby girls…. You make me so proud everyday. I am honored to be called your Mama. You all amaze me with your uniqueness and characters. And I pray this next year brings you more joy than the last. I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER! “I LOVE YOU MOSTEST BIG!”

XOXO ~D~
