Kezia was hesitant to go back to school, but now that she's back, she is happy to be back and seems to be adjusting just fine. (despite the homework. Neither of us are happy with the amount of homework given to 1st graders.)
I looked at her the other day and noticed how tall she has gotten! She is getting so big and grown up! What happened to my baby?!
Her most prized possession is her "puppy pack", a growing collection of stuffed dogs. I think she's up to seven now. They all have names and personalities and take turns "seeing the world" with her.
Her other prized possession is her money. She loves to earn, count, exchange, count, touch, trans-place, and spend her money. She reached her goal this month (with help from a bag full of change Kay found in the house) of earning enough money to open a savings account so she can now have money to spend. Poor girl, though, the very day she had money to spend, she brought all $17 to the store with Grandma, picked out what she wanted, but had put the money on the shelf and it was taken. Hard lesson to learn. But Nate has gotten her excited about starting an online store to earn more money.
Kezia is a serious bookworm. Definitely picked that gene up from me. She's been reading ahead on chapter books I got to read to the girls, recently "Ivy and Bean" and "James and the Giant Peach". She's so excited to give away future happenings in the story before we get there!
Kezia is currently taking swimming lessons, hula, ballet, tumbling and tap dance and recently finished a ceramics class. She says ceramics, swimming, tumbing and hula are her favorite.
