Week one

Kaylee's first week of school was a success! She loves class, loves her teacher and her favorite friends are all in her class. As a matter of fact, they are all sitting in the same section. I imagine this won't last long, as when I asked Kaylee if they talked a lot (silly questions since she's my daughter!!), she looked down and quietly said, "Ya... a little" ... "Kaylee, has your teacher asked you to be quiet?" still looking down..." ya... a lot". LOL!! She is such a kind, sweet girl. She is reading like a pro! I would like to take credit for that, but it is all her. She prefers to read, which is great! She's a self starter and is very prompt when it comes to getting homework done. She also wakes right up in the morning. Hmm.. maybe she takes more after her dad! That's got to be it!!
Today Kaylee also had her first ballet lesson for the school year. She's been talking a lot about dancing point / toe at some point in the future. I've been telling her to work hard and practice her ballet and we will see. Today at her lesson, you could see the determination on her face! She did everything identical to the teacher. Every movement was perfect. She's very graceful and it was so much fun to watch her dance!! She defiantly has a mind of her own and it is set!! It is so great to watch your kids grow up. It's hard to believe she is 7!! I came across her outfit we brought her home in the hospital in. She was 5 weeks early and just an itty bitty little thing. Now she's this tall, beautiful girl with a mind of her own (and a mouth of her own!!!!!), and she is doing great things!! I look forward to the future, but am living in the moment.
