4th Adoption day and Birthday #5
August is a busy celebration month for us. DD has been ours for 4 years now, and just turned 5 years old. What?! She's been in kindergarten for 7 weeks now and LOVES IT! She is the youngest in her class, and there are several 6 year old children in her class as well. At the first parent/teacher conference this week the teacher told me she's doing better academically than several of the 6 year olds.
 But, being the youngest, and also an only child, she is a bit less mature than several. But, it's not her fault that so many of the children are already six (and I mean some are well over six, like they will turn seven this school year)! The teacher is very pleased with her, and she tells me that the school staff really enjoy her.She's such a social girl and has a sense of humor. She's sure been a blessing to our family!  Here are some pictures from her birthday. She was THRILLED to get the violin, and everyone was amazed watching her open it and handle it like a pro. Last edited by tigger44 : 10-15-2009 at 08:18 AM.
