The Mason Clan: Six Years Old

Six Years Old

My sweet, precious Niah is six years old today! It's hard to believe. (I think I always say that!) Niah is such a joy to have in our family.

I love that Niah has a funny sense of humor. She makes us laugh every day with the things she says and does. She understands the 'adult' world and is very aware of what is going on around her.
She is very smart and mature (minus a tantrum here and there) for her age. She loves school and loves to learn.

She loves to dance and loves music. She is an awesome big sister and really takes care of Chloe and Bennett. She loves to play with baby dolls, Barbies, and she loves to be outside.
Niah has an adventurous side to her! She is not a morning person. Getting up early for school is rough, but she does it, most days, with a grin and a good attitude.

I am so lucky to be Niah's mom. She brings me so much joy and I love having her around. I love you Niah Marie and hope you have a wonderful, totally awesome birthday!

Niah's Latest...

I thought I would post some funny things that Niah has been saying lately.

*Last night, while Niah was laying in bed she yells out to Bryan and I, "I've been away from Jesus for four years!" Bryan says back, "Yep, do you miss him?!" Niah said, "Ya, I guess I do!" That's all she said and then it was quiet. How sweet is that?!

*Coming home on the airplane a couple of days ago, we were flying over the ocean into Boston. Niah looked out the window and said, "Mom, what if we crash in the ocean? A shark would eat us and we'd die in his throat!" I'm sure the other passengers around us could hear her. We got a good laugh out of that one!

* The other night, Niah was saying her prayers before bed and at the end of her prayer she said, "and Bless that we can get a new couch!" Bryan and I were laughing pretty hard. I have to admit that I have prayed for that too.

*A few days ago, Niah dropped one of her princess magnets down the drain in our bathroom. She was really sad and upset when it happened, but eventually got over it. A couple of days later she was in the bathroom and she must have remembered what happened. She started bawling and very seriously she said, "I dropped my princess magnet down the drain. This ruined my life!!" I wish something as simple as that would 'ruin' my life too.

*The other day, Niah was playing dress-up. She was wearing one of her dress- up rings. Gavin is our neighbor and we play all the time together. Niah loves him.
Niah: "Mom, Gavin gave me this ring when we got married."
Mom: "Oh really, when did you get married?"
Niah: "It was while ago, you weren't born yet. Gavin is my prince. I love him!"

*We read scriptures every night as a family and the other night Niah wanted to read. So she opened up her little Book Of Mormon and this is what she read us-
Niah: "And it came to pass that the mean guys put Jesus on the cross and then he was resurrected."
I guess she really does listen to what Bryan and I have been trying to teach her!

*In church on Sunday, Niah asked Bryan, "is through that wall how you get to heaven?" (She was referring to the big white wall behind the pulpit!)
