You got your third grade bible at church a couple of weeks ago. You were so nervous to get up in front of the church and wanted to know exactly what you would have to do. I don’t think you believed us right away when we told you that you simply had to walk up and take your bible. Your nerves didn’t show a bit as you walked up with your head held high and we were super proud. Dad and I enjoyed going to bible boot camp later that Sunday to learn all about using your new bible. We pray you use this as the main book in your life and source for all the answers you seek and comfort you need.
In other news, you are back in school four days a week and are so glad! You rocked having to be at Seven Oaks Park by yourself and keeping up with your virtual schedule, but it was a lot for an 8 year old to keep up with. There were definitely some stressful times and times when your emotions won out, but overall you were a rockstar and handled it with more maturity than lots of older kids. You are in Ms. Barrack’s talented and gifted class and are doing well. However, you put so much pressure on yourself. We pray that you will seek your worth from God and know that no matter what your grades are that what matters most is that you’re a kind person and always try your best. We’ve had that conversation many times lately and we’re not sure it’s sinking in yet, so I hope your older self is reading this and believing how awesome you are!!
We love you and are proud of you. Let’s pray that the next update is back to normal and covid is gone!!!!
(You wanted to try ice skating again when we both were off for election day. You first wanted to give up when it was hard at the beginning again, but you got back out there and ended up doing the best you've done yet and we stayed the longest we've ever stayed. I had so much fun with you!
