My first born, you are 7-years-old. You are full on school age with missing teeth and potty jokes for days. You are thriving in first grade and still love to play school when you're at home. You love math and are becoming a more confident reader everyday. You are super helpful and industrious, always willing to lend a hand. You are interested in money and learning about spending, saving and giving. Sometimes you come home from school and immediately get to work cleaning the house- vacuuming, taking out the garbage and dusting to earn a little extra cash. You love imaginative play and constantly reenact whatever you've experienced in the world.
Your two best friends are Christopher and Tucker. You and Tucker have been in the same class the last two year and Christopher's family is building a house next door. You love playing with him in the construction site and the two of you consistently sit together on the bus. I've always dreamed of having a best friend neighbor family and am so glad that is coming true for you. You, Weston and Hazel play really well together and you're always looking out for them. They both think you're the best and will follow wherever you lead. Physical touch is your primary love language and you live for the bedtimes back scratch/snuggle. When you're having a hard day sitting and connecting is especially important.

The transition to first grade was a tough one and it took some time to adjust. A month with a long term substitute and not a lot of classroom engagement left you feeling depleted at the end of each day. Since your teacher, Mr. Cleary, has been back you are enjoying school and motivated to learn. You're still working on producing your best, quality work on the regular, which you are totally capable of if you set your mind to it.
A highlight of your 6th year was adding Beau to the family. You love having a dog and are so great with him. The day we went to choose him the two of you had an instant bond and you accurately said that "he choose us." You're competitive and like to win. You're a whiz on your bike and can ride multiple miles if you choose. You played another season of soccer and claimed to love it despite the fact that you didn't appear all that engaged. You value family and love being at home.
As my first born we are always learning and growing together. Your blue eyes and kind heart make my world go round and I'm incredibly proud of you. You are everything I'd always hoped you'd be. I love you with all that I have and all that I am. I'm looking forward to another year of adventures together.
xoxo,
You loving mama
