6 years old!

How are you 6 already? We had so much fun celebrating you this year! We had family over for pizza and cake on Friday night and then you had a unicorn themed gymnastics party with your friends from school and church on Saturday.

At 6 you are:
extremely independent and helpful
inquisitive and bright
funny and creative
loving and tender-hearted
sensitive
not a fan of criticism/ punishment
a selective perfectionist
a liar- just kidding! But you did tell us your first fib as a six year old and you may find it funny looking back on this now. You had to sit out at play centers at school for being too loud, so we had you write a note of apology to your teacher. The next day I asked if you gave it to your teacher and what she said. You told me you gave it to her, but she said you could just keep it in your book bag! Ha! I knew right away but let you come clean on your own later. It was a bit of a melt down (look above for the part that says you're not a fan of criticism or punishment) but in the end you realize we don't think you're a "bad kid" and we don't "hate you." (all your go to words when you mess up). You are simply learning and growing and we are proud of the strides you are making! You bring us more joy than we could ever imagine!!
