number 4.

eden, age 2

For some reason I had it in my head that Eden
(being child number 4)
was going to be super easy going and
go with the flow type of personality.

I was so wrong.

She is sweet and cuddly one second,
then fiesty and opinionated the next.
She's bossy, she's loud, she's very strong willed...
she really threw us for a loop!

She keeps me on my toes :)

She also HATES loud noises...
she was terrified at Veggie Tales Live the other night!
(which is so funny for such a strong personality!)

Oh Eden, we love your fiesty,
unpredictable ways...
you make life so much more interesting!

Love your post. Eden sounds a bit like my number 4 child, my son, Brennan. He is super strong-willed, but also the most caring, momma loving little boy.

I love those kids. Like you said, they keep us on our toes.

Have a great Wednesday.

Sounds very similar to my three year old daughter! It's a God given personality! One that tests me and strengthens me and makes me love my daughter all the more! Blessings!

That sounds so much like my #3, Josie. Ben is our #4 and he is actually pretty easygoing, which I am VERY thankful for after a day full of handling Josie!

aren't you continually amazed at their unique design? you'd think that after three or four, we'd have it figured out! our first was your third. and it was almost enough to make us reconsider many more. but God had other plans. the next three were easy breezy. then came baby five....reminding us that we aren't as young as we were when we chased number one around! :o)

i know what you mean about the last one. i thought my 5yo girl would be just like going with the flow for us...but no. she didn't like disneyland which bummed us out and she is also afraid of loud noises.

She's adorable. Eden sounds very much like my 4th child :-) She's 15 now, and still feisty, but a wonderful young lady :-) Maybe it's because by #4, they have to learn to hold their own with their older siblings :-)
Blessings,
Marcia
