Jenna is 9!

I can't believe that my oldest child is now nine years old.  We had fun reflecting on what was happening nine years ago and how or lives are different now.  Jenna is such a sweet girl and is growing up so much.  Here are somethings I want to remember about my daughter at this age.

• She is an amazing big sister
• She loves to play pretend (and especially loves to be animals)
• She has learned to have a good attitude when I ask her to help me
• She has a great smile
• She tidies the bathroom every morning and does a great job
• She reads and reads and some times we can't even pull her out of a book
• She still loves rainbows
• She is an incredibly good student
• She is FUN.  
• Her brothers love to play with her
• She is a great drawer, but doesn't draw as much as she used to
• She loves to help mother her brothers
• She likes roller skating to school
• She likes her clothes comfy and cute
• She seems to have lots of friends at school and activity day girls but is content to come home and play with her brothers
• She is eager to learn
• She is always all ears
•  She is loving
• She is quick to help others
• She is SO responsible (Piano, homework, flashcards, Battle of the Books, her retainer)
• She has fun ideas
• She gets excited about things
• She is a peacemaker with her cousins
• She is creative and imaginative
• She is motivated

Jenna, we love you so much.  It has been such a joy to watch you grow up this far, and we know that we are in for an incredible ride with you in our family.  We look forward to many more years of happy, exciting and entertaining years with you around.
