Happy Birthday Cera!

Cera was excited to have her birthday fall during a week off school this year.  We played hard all week!  Cera has been taking guitar lessons at school this year and has really enjoyed it.  She loves to go downstairs and hang out with Dad while he is playing but has been sad she can't play more at home.  We decided to get her a guitar for her birthday.  Dad gave it to her in the basement on her birthday and didn't think to take any pictures so Mom had to take some after the fact.

Can you tell how much she loves it?  She plays often and has learned a few songs already.

We just love having Cera in our family.  She is a good big sister (most of the time) and tries to be a good example for her sisters to follow.  She is kind, loving and a hard worker.  She likes to serve others and watches for opportunities to do little things to help others or just to make them smile.  She also enjoys babysitting and helping little kiddos.  She enjoys watching youtube videos, playing minecraft, reading, writing, playing with friends and learning about new things that interest her.  She is good with Mojo and enjoys working on teaching her new tricks.  Life would probably be almost perfect for Cera if Mom would have another baby and let her get the hamster she wants - too bad life can't be perfect!

We can't imagine our family without Cera's humor, laugh, grumpies and sweet spirit!  Happy 11th birthday!  Where has the time gone?!?!?
