Ellie is 9️⃣

Ellie turned 9 while our family was on pilgrimage in Italy!

The day after we returned we had a Harry Potter themed birthday party to celebrate!

Ellie is such a gift - and has been blessed with so many talents. The newest one we get to see is in her creativity in writing and acting. After reading the first 3 Harry Potter books this past year and seeing the movies - she decided to write her own book and create a movie. Her main character is Grace Marren, who is a future relative of Harry Potter. In the movie Grace is played by Ellie, while her siblings and neighbors play the other characters - even mom and dad get an occasional role when not filming on our phones. Like Harry Potter, Grace and all of the characters speak with a British accent, which is no problem for Ellie and Francis who learn British English at school! 

It is such a joy to see Ellie produce these fantastic works!

She remains our bright, helpful, loving first-born with whom we are very pleased!!









In Assisi one of the souvenir shoe had a Harry Potter section! Ellie chose to get a Gryffendor wallet and a huge bow and arrow!













We love you, Ellie!! 💗
