Sadie at 6 and Sadie at 3…not much has changed.
This kid. She’s the funniest and the most infuriating. I have no doubt that she will rule the world one day. This kid is going to move mountains.
She is:
+ stubborn
+ quick-witted
+ smart as a whip
+ easily frustrated
+ snuggly
+ prickly
+ funny
+ observant
+ logical
+ defiant
+ an instigator
+ thoughtful
+ prone to verbal outburts (she’s loud, she’s proud get used to it)
+ a hand holder
+ strong-willed
+ a gymnast
+loyal
She is not:
+ easily impressed
+ easily swayed
+ openly emotional
+ good at taking no for an answer
+ patient
+ extroverted
+ quiet
+ interested in hugging you if she doesn’t truly know you
+ a doormat
+ a girlie girl
+ shy to tell you what she thinks
She is going to be one hell of a woman. Now if we can just survive to get there. Ha! I love being her mama, but it is not easy. It’s a constant struggle between spunky (cute) and sassy (not cute) and we toe that line every day.
I adore this girl. And oh man…I cannot wait to see what giants+dragons she slays one day.

Super cute! She’s absolutely perfect!!! Love your writing on this – it inspires me to write something down like this for my own kids 🙂
Such cute pictures! What great memories you are writing for your kids. Love it! I will say in my experience it gets easier. I find that with my girls, they are much easier as teens (the oldest are 15 and 17). They are easy going, laid back and so funny. Although Homecoming dress shopping can be a bit trying until they finally, 5 stores and 8 hrs. later, find a dress they love! haha!
I have one exactly the same! And, yes, I also cannot wait to see what giants and dragons she’s going to slay one day!
She is awesome.
love that girl.
she reminds me of BOTH my girls.
my days are hard sometimes, but good news?
they are great decision makers and know what they want!
good head on the shoulders type of girls!
And Ava wore converse with her fancy dress for her cousins wedding this weekend,
off went the sandals as soon as the service was over and then her dancing shoes!
you go sadie girl!

Get it Sadie! Love those pics!
Love that girl 🙂 We’re a lot alike lol
This has the makings of a great scrapbook page 🙂
She sounds wonderful. Wishing her a very happy birthday. My six year old has a lot of the same qualities, it makes for a lively time. CJ xx
I love this post, because I have one just like her
She’s a true little Aquarius. ( she has the same birthday as me) 🙂
Sadie is just very special – all of your children are beautiful&special. But there is just something about Sadie! One day she will rule the world(& it will be a much better world.)
i feel like i just read about my jordan. goodness they are very similar!
It sounds like little miss Sadie is very similar to our AVeri. “Raising your Spirited Child” by Mary Sheedy Kurcinka is a beautiful book that has given us great insight on how to preserve, yet “control” her spirit. Highly recommend the read if you haven’t already!
