Grace,
Officially a second grader now and really debating about bringing my mini homebody home for school! You excelled in first grade and you knew it. You were upset when your teacher didn't call on you anymore because "she said she knows I know all the answers." You are so loving to our family and always write notes and cards for Dad and me and leave them on our pillows. You always greet us with a hug and initiate many random ones throughout our days. Like Elijah, your favorite playmates are your siblings and you love doing anything if it's with them. You've been a faithful spectator at all their games and are really looking forward to finally being able to play basketball this coming fall! You are able to tackle our long bike rides without your training wheels and have had an excellent start to swim season. You love to play mostly with your many stuffies and take turns sleeping with them each night. For your birthday you wanted a vet kit so you could care for them. You have brought so much love and warmth to our home and you melt all our hearts with your cuteness. We love you so much! Happy Birthday!
Love, M & D
