Parenting a 5 year-old

Before I had a place of my own to gather my ramblings, Jenna at A Mama Collective gave me some space.  She asked me for some words on raising older kids, but what I came up with was this post:  Parenting a 5-year-old.  I just love this age.  It is such a refreshing time after the preschool years.  Here is my little tribute to my favorite 5 year old as she is on the cusp of turning 6!  Hope you enjoy!
