Right now, you are teetering between worlds - sometimes you are still my little girl who plays Barbies and house and dress-up and sometimes you are so much more grown-up. We talk about friends and problems. We go to plays. I love the little girl side of you, but I am excited to get to know this older version as well. You still like me to snuggle you and sing to you, but you are starting to want to do more things with your friends and to be more independent.
Right now, you are full of nurturing. Kate thinks you are her second mommy. You take care of everyone. You have a natural talent with babies and little children. You see things that need to be done and you just quietly go about doing them.
Right now, you love hanging out with friends. You and Abby are singing in the Children's Christmas Choir together, and I think you love hanging out with her each week more than you love the music. You are always trying to arrange times to get together with your friends, and when you do get together, it's nonstop chatting and giggling.
Right now, you are getting much more interested in clothes. Every morning is an adventure as you try to put together outfits that express your personal style. But being modest is super important to you too, so you often bring me shirts that I know you love that are maybe a little too short or tight. I am grateful that you are paying attention and willing to monitor yourself.
