Sweet, sweet, Mya.
You are officially 7 years old. No more telling us that you aren't :) We've been using it against you for a few months and you've been so quick to inform us that you aren't seven!
You continue to be a bright light in our lives. You are the queen of personality. You make us laugh, cry, and keep us on our toes. Dad and I kid that you are single handedly responsible for the gray hairs on our heads. While it is a joke, you do like to push the limits.
You are rocking the first grade. Excelling in all you do. You started doing reading counts like your older sister and the goal setting piece of it has you driven for success. I love that you are so motivated to read. You are reading beyond 2nd grade level now, which makes us so proud. Even prouder, is the point that you LOVE to read. You frequently have a book open in the car, ignoring all questions asked of you as you are enthralled in the story. You read every night--sometimes to me, sometimes I read to you. I love that time with you.
You play with everyone. I can't say that you really have a best friend or even close friends. You simply play with everyone. You also know everyone. It is insane. We used to kid that you've never met a stranger. I think that was when you were three or so. Well, it has certainly continued to ring true. You know everyone. You are definitely our bold, social butterfly who leads the pack.
We started the year with gymnastics and piano, then decided to take a break. Now that you've had some time off, you are thinking gymnastics is your thing again. We are also talking about trying soccer again. Dad and I aren't sure if the snacks/medals are driving you or the real desire to play, but time will tell. We will also give violin a whirl, but possibly hold off another year or two.
You are an amazing girl, Mya. You are forever my mini me, yet have so much of your Dad in you. You are stubborn, sweet, funny, loving, love to shine, don't want to walk in someone else's shadow, a great big sister, an animal lover, a good helper, a party girl, simply someone who wants to do their own thing. I cannot wait to see what you conquer in this world. You have an amazing spirit. Seven years has come and gone way too quickly.
-You are wearing a size 12 shoe.
-Wear size 6 clothing.
-Love to wear fleece pants.
-You prefer to sleep with no jammies!!
- Love Humphrey's, Little House, and Princess in Black books.
- You were thrilled with your new mountain bike and IPOD docking station. Now you can have dance parties in private!
-You love to look beautiful and thrive on compliments and reaching goals.
-Your favorite food is pizza, though you've branched out with meat this year. You used to hate steak and now are a fan. That being said, you are a great eater. You are not picky about anything.
-You love music. You love to learn the words and are frequently seen singing, bopping or snapping your fingers to the beat.
Mya, we are so very proud of you and who you are becoming. You are finding your own path and while it is frustrating at times, we wouldn't want it any other way. Keep on marching to your own beat. You will do amazing things in this life! We can't wait to see your story as it unfolds.
We love you more than you'll ever know!
