Love, Laughter & Ladybugs: Happy 3 YEAR Forever Family Day!!

Hi all, Dad Here,

Just a quick drive-by to post a short message to remember the day Ashley first joined the Lockheads. It's difficult to describe the passing of so much time so quickly. So much has happened in the past year, I even have a hard time remembering our family without our little girl. Her personality is really starting to shine through and she's finding her place in our family and in her world.

She can be a little headstrong, but that's a good thing and comes in handy when trying to keep up with her brothers. She really enjoys her teachers and friends at Goddard School (her best friend is Isabella). She's looking forward to joining her brothers in elementary school - she even has an "Oakie" stuffed animal friend - he's the
mascot at the Boy's school!

Summer was great - Ashley really enjoyed her 2nd year at Y-Camp with her brothers again. She made a lot of friends and will hopefully join them next year, too.

We were fortunate enough to take a family vacation to Hawaii - the Big Island. We had a great time!

Ashley's growing taller and stronger each day. We've had an eventful year with all of her challenges, but she is making progress in many ways - she's a trooper and is very brave and helpful with both Me and Mom.

Here a a few photos from the past couple of months...
