Rori turned 5! I am so grateful for Rori, she has such a sweet spirit and has a great understanding for how people feel. This year Rori wanted to have a friend birthday party. Which was fine with us, but Nate had one request. He ask that Rori put on the invitation "No gifts please." This was a hard decision for her to make but as Nate talked to her about why it was a good thing she agreed to go along with the request.
I am so proud of her. She is growing and learning so much! I wish I could be the one to take credit for who she has become but I think it is just who is she is. She has taught me so much about who I am and what is important. There have been many time that she has taught me about missionary work and the importance of it. Our lives are so blessed because of Rori! Happy Birthday Rori we love you!
For Rori's Birthday this year Nate got her a amaryllis bulb. It was a lot of fun to see her open it. She asked Nate why he go her an onion.
He told her about the amaryllis, and how it would last for 28 years. She then told Nate that by then she would be married and Nate would be old! I am excited for the next 28 year and so glad that Rori will be part of it.

ReplyDeleteI love Rori's little plant. I think I want to get me one too. I didn't know they lived that long.
