Kelsey

is a feisty nugget of sweet and stubborn.  Like the month of her birth, she can enter a room like a lion, but leave like a lamb.  She is full of logic, has a memory like a steel-trap and curiosity about everything under the sun.

She is fiercely competitive and terribly loyal.  Slow to unfold in the morning, she is a firecracker by sunset.  She can be a pesky little sister one minute and a loving over-protective older sister the next.  She has her father’s Mediterranean skin and her mother’s long fingers.  She can pull off the dress-jeans-sweater-tank top over turtleneck combination with an unshakable confidence that makes you wonder why you didn’t think of it. 

She is incredibly independent but won’t leave without giving you a hug, a kiss and a pat on the back.  She is our little bubbly bundle of energy, Kelsey D., and today, as another year has flown by, she turns six.

Happy Birthday, Kels!
