Miss M Turns 9!

In November, the highlight was Miss M turning 9. I cannot believe we only have nine more years until she flies the coop! We celebrated her actual birthday with chaperoning a field trip which was fun. I loved seeing her in school and with her classmates. But man was I tired! Thankfully after piercing her ears after school she opted for pizza in and watching the Wizard of Oz. For her birthday party, we had a paint party at our house. It was so much fun and I loved meeting her friends from school. They all painted owls and we did an owl theme. I think she felt loved and encouraged which is the purpose of the party. She has done so well transitioning to public school. We definitely have our moments, like anyone does, but she loves her teachers, is learning a lot and seems to really care for her peers in her classroom. She is a bit too smart for her parents and constantly keeps us on our toes. Her love right now is penguins and American Girl doll. She is also taking ski lessons and is still learning some Japanese. She loves books and to read, and she is quite sensitive and aware of people around her who may be hurting. We are so proud of the young lady she is turning into. And we look forward to seeing God grow in her in beautiful ways to be who He wants her to be and take her where He wants to take her. Sweet girl, we love you!
