We've learned so much about her this year. I feel like we're closer than ever to her. She is smart, beautiful, funny, very talented, and she's becoming a good friend to me. We have a lot of interests in common and I love how quickly she picks up new skills and talents.
She has a love for making beautiful treasures and she loves to laugh and have fun. She loves crafts, cooking, shopping, jewelry (can you tell by the number of necklaces she's sporting?), reading, playing on the computer, and hanging out with Mom & Dad.
She loves her family - she's become much closer friends with Brooke this summer (which has been WONDERFUL). She loves her dog. I think she truly loves life.
I've recently been called in as her Primary teacher. I know how smart she is and how she soaks up knowledge. It's fun to watch her soak it all up in Sunday School class too. When we've learned stories we haven't talked about yet at home, I am amazed at how quickly she's able to retain the information and seems to be able to apply it to modern life too. I hope that it's helping her build a strong testimony.
I can't wait to watch her grow in every way again this next year. I hope this next year is a lot more fun for her and that our new understanding of her helps everything go really smoothly at school and with friends in the year to come.
We love her and cherish her and are thankful she's been given to us to be our daughter.
