You can difficult because you like to be in control.
You love to have a good time! If someone smiles at you or laughs, you always join in.
You are competitive, especially with Reece.
You are stubborn and you don't like to be wrong. When asked to apologize, you still growl it with a mean face. We have gotten stricter with this one. If you cannot apologize nicely, you go right back to your room and come back out when you're ready... you usually come right back out because you don't like being alone.
You love to look in the mirror when you are talking to me. You are dramatic with your expressions and movements. You put your hands on your hips, step your foot out, bend your hip to the side and look up with eyebrows raised and a sassy face when you want to prove a point.
You LOVE gymnastics and you love Ms. Yolanda! You are learning to do a handstand, cartwheels, and round-offs.
You LOVE your brother. You want to make him happy, so you tell him about the cool race car you saw on the freeway, or tell him the new animal facts you learned while he was away at school.
You are just now showing interest in letters and are beginning to write a few.

Elle:
"This is hilarious." (when frustrated) with crossed arms and a deep voice.
"That's disgusting."
"That's disgusting."
"Jesus made it all beautiful!"
You love to talk to people, the older, the better. Often at Reece's baseball games, I will find you chatting away on a grandparent's lap. And of course, they all love you!
You like to be in control, and are very stubborn when things are not going your way. This morning you asked for help getting a snack from deep in the cupboard. When I asked you to ask nicely (instead of Get me a snack) you sat for a while, then said you didn't know how to ask nicely or what to say. You decided to struggle and climb into the cabinet instead of receiving my help by asking politely.
You won't let me hold your hand when we cross the street or are in a parking lot. Instead you will hold my clothes, purse, or my pinky... your way of having control.
Each night you ask, What's after we stop sleeping? Then what's after we stop sleeping (the next day)? Then what's after we stop sleeping (the next day)? I usually cut it off once we've gotten through one week.
If you're upset with someone you instantly tell them or me that they are NOT going to your birthday.
You are creative when saying grace, and will thank God for things really on your mind.
You like to be in control. If I take out your pink socks, you will put on your purple socks. You basically want to make the decisions, and we've learned to adjust. So, if I need you to wear the pink socks, I know to give you the purple ones first. Ha! Someday soon you'll catch on.

We sure do love you and the fierceness God has gifted you with! You're going to do GREAT things, ElleBelle!
