Last day of 1st grade

Molly finished up first grade at the end of May. She enjoyed the year, and did great. She was at the top if her class, exceeded expectations in most categories, is on a 3rd grade reading level, and was in TAG. She is already looking forward to second grade, and hopes it brings some new challenges. She is working in a second grade workbook during this summer to keep sharp.

Her TAG class wrote their own play for the end of the year. Molly was a kitty cat. We got to go watch her perform. She was pretty excited and so proud of herself. They did a great job!

Dancing girl

Emma started dance classes in January. It's been so fun to watch her love something so completely. She has really done well, and was so excited for her first recital. 

Molly turns 7

In May, Molly turned 7. Can't believe how grown up she is. She is an amazing girl, so smart and sweet. She's an avid reader, loves to do crafts, plays piano, and is a great big sister. Love this girl!

She decided on a lady bug cake this year, and it turned out pretty darn cute. Her birthday was on Mother's Day, so we celebrated the day before, and Grandma and Grandpa and her Aunt Krista came to help us party.
