My Bella is turning FOUR!

So I am sure I'll have all kinds of fun details to write tomorrow about our crazy Dora party and all the fun we are going to have, but right now? I'm feeling a little sad that my little girl is turning four tomorrow. Four? I've been in Buffalo FOUR years? I left all those fabulous people in Utah that I loved so much FOUR years ago? (I have vague memories of sobbing my way out of town...) Four years ago we finished medical school and I took a five-day-old newborn to see my husband cross the U of U stage? Four?!? And that darling little baby girl, so tiny and perfect is a big four year old who likes her hair "scrunched with magic curl stuff in it please" and her tomato sandwich without pepper but with provolone preferably. My little Bella who can be such a Diva unless you ask her and she'll tell you "I'm NOT a Diva!" Still at the top of her lungs...and little Princess who calls her brothers "Brother" (O) and "The Other Brother" (X) but loves them expansively and follows them everywhere. Little "Superbness.com" as her Daddy calls her. Miss, "today I am the Queen" Bella is going to be four. She is so excited that her friends are coming to have a party. Me too. But I am going to miss my three-year-old. She's been quite fun. But maybe Four will be too...
