Dear Miss Six,
Happy sixth birthday beautiful girl.
It seems like we were just celebrating your fifth birthday at your Frozen party, but here we are again, and you are six! Pick up sticks! {I know how much you love a rhyme}
And what a year you have had!
You started school this year, and it’s so wonderful to see you spread your wings. You’ve made some lovely new friends, you love reading and learn all your sight words so quickly. You have an amazing memory which will no doubt serve you well in life.
You are just thriving and keeping us busy with play dates, swimming, ballet lessons, birthday parties and lots of craft projects. You could do craft for hours. Your imagination is incredible and we love watching you create with so much concentration and focus.
You’ve lost 2 teeth and have another wobbly up the top.
And you’re a sneaky little Miss. Lately you’ve been sneaking lollies from the top shelf in the pantry and sharing them with your little brother. Yep, you have mumma’s sweet tooth, but at least you share 
Even though its winter, you insist on wearing your summer dresses everywhere. You really are a girly girl, but I love how you can be a total princess and the next minute be wrestling with your little brother. You just adore the little guy and although you two do fight, you really are besties.
Skipping is one of your favourite things to do. You still skip everywhere and I hate to see the day you no longer do, because it will mean our little girl has grown up. Thankfully we are a while off that yet.
You are loyal, lovable, funny, sweet as pie, cheeky and your giggle can light up a room.
You love your joke books at the moment, {especially knock knock jokes} and magic tricks and beanie boo toys, and all you want for your birthday is a real mermaid tail so you can swim like Ariel.
So my little lady, enjoy your craft party and keep skipping through six and lighting up our world so brightly.
We simply adore you!
Love Mumma xx

Thanks so much Michaela! I remember reading your post when your Miss 6 started school, I was feeling exactly the same as you. So lovely. Hope your Miss 6 is going well. xx
How gorgeous! Lovely photos ! This would be great to do every year so she can look over them when she’s older. I love the list of favourites at the end. Happy birthday to your little Miss 6!
Thanks so much Erika! Its actually the reason I started blogging in the first place. xx
Hope Ms 6 had a lovely birthday! Love what you did to record her favorites Shannon!

Gosh, they get so big so quick! Happy Birthday sweet girl.
THanks lovely. THey really do! Blink of an eye! xx
She is so cute!!! I love the list of things that she is into now. It’s such a good idea. I have to write down this because I’m sure I’ll forget in a few years what have been those childhood years! I can’t believe mine will be 10 in 6 months!!! xx cathy
10 wow a whole decade! A huge milestone definitely needing a celebration!
These posts are the main reason I started blogging in the first place. I hope she appreciates them some day. Thanks for your lovely comments Cathy xx
Oh what a gorgeous little lass you have! I hope she has a magical birthday! x
Thanks Sash! She was very spoilt and LOVED her craft party! xx
What a lovely way to mark your daughter’s 6th birthday. Love all your photos and favourites list, she will be very grateful to see the memories captured.
Thank you so so much! That means the world. These posts are the main reason I started blogging in the first place, so I sure hope she appreciates them someday. xx
I love that you do this for your kids such wonderful keepsakes. I think your Miss 6 and mine would get along just fine! They can tell each other knock knock jokes! She’s gorgeous Shannon and looks a lot like you! x
Aww thank you so much Lovely. These posts are the real reason I started blogging in the first place, hopefully she will appreciate them one day!
xx
Is the knock knock thing just a phase?? Gosh I hope so. I find I can never remember jokes so she has much more fun with Daddy with the joke telling
Happy birthday special girl! What a lovely list to put together and it will be such a great keepsake when she is older.
Thank you so much Lauren! These posts are the whole reason I started blogging in the first place! I hope she appreciates them one day!
Thanks for your lovely comments! xx
What a wonderful tribute to a gorgeous girl! you have stunning kids, I bet you can’t take your camera lens off them? My girl is seven and I’ve been enjoying the school years.. but so many questions eeek.
I’m also quite shocked how fast we went from the Frozen- frenzy into Monster High, that was a seismic shift to knocked me over.. and her fashion style has changed along with that too. Gothic, really?
Everything must be grown-up, ‘babyish’ is to be avoided and NOT discussed! EVER!
‘Muuuuum! dont tell people I used to like THAT!’
I think I’m about a heartbeat away from ‘youre-so-embarrassing’.
oh my gosh. Does it really happen that quickly!? wow! I’m not ready for that yet!
Thank you so much for your lovely comments and for popping by! xx
What a beautiful post Shannon! Your Miss 6 and my Miss 6 have so much in common!

Thank you lovely! Six is a fun age. I remember so clearly being six myself! Hope your miss 6 is going well.
Are you looking forward to school holidays? xx
What a beautiful post. Loved all the photos and memories. Happy birthday Miss 6. x
Thank you so much Bronnie! These posts are the reason I started blogging in the first place. Gotta capture these things, otherwise this old mumma is likely to forget.
Thanks for stopping by. xx
These letters are such a special gift. I wish that I had these from my mum as I grew up.
What a dear little thing she is.
Thank you so much Nicole! These posts are the reason I started blogging in the first place, so its so lovely to hear that! xx
Oh this is so sweet! I love the photo you have made up too. I want to get Ari ‘The Day the Crayons Quit’ book.
Thanks lovely. Its a good way to remember what they are into at certain ages. I love that book… I’m writing a post on kids books at the moment… stay tuned.
xx
Such a beautiful letter for your beautiful six year old! I love the list of ‘favourites’…
As time goes by, it’s so easy to forget these details that so perfectly capture exactly what your rug rat was into and loving!
Hope the birthday party was a blast!!
