Sarah Kate is Four

It has been almost a year since Sarah turned four, but at least I had all these quotes and pictures saved. She has a slight lisp and it makes everything she says even better. She has the sweetest, most calm nature, but there is clearly a lot going on in that curly, little, head.

On a drive with only her, "It’s only you guys in the car so there is no one in here to bug me."

"Mom I’m scared of the dark. I’m afraid the dark will see me."
