This is a non-friends-party year for Amber (why didn't we stagger their non-party years so that we're not planning two parties within 11 days of each other every other year?!) Amber, like Haley, got to invite a friend to spend the night and participate in her family party. She chose her friend Sydney, from school. Since Amber's birthday falls smack in the middle of our spring break this year it was perfect timing for a birthday sleep over!
Here are 14 things we love about our Amber:
- She's genuine and true to herself
- She's not concerned with what's "cool" or popular
- She has a strong testimony of the power of prayer
- She has a great deal of empathy for others
- She has a great sense of humor
- She loves children (and babysitting...even her siblings!)
- She is kind to those who don't "fit in" and is a friend to all
- She is TALL (this is probably my last year being taller!)
- She is a talented video gamer :)
- She brings music into our home (piano, clarinet, saxophone)
- She loves her family and extended family
- She's boldly stands up for those who are picked on
(even when the bully is older and bigger than she is!)
- She's HEALTHY!
- She is not afraid to live her standards
We feel so blessed to have Amber in our family and love her very much.
Stake Dances, here she comes!
