Lauren Daigle and Adele are currently your two favorite singers. A slow, emotional song came on and you cried and reminisced about Great Grandma Betty, who we lost last month. You said you missed her and were upset because we told you she died. You said you wished we would have said she stopped living because your heart could have been more courageous with that statement instead.
You love gymnastics and to dance. You also love soccer. After your fist game you asked, "When do I get to play again? That was so much fun!"
You also LOVE animals... dogs are still your favorite!
A group of your girlfriends and soccer teammates were being sassy to Lexi, as we walked up to soccer practice. You walked right into the middle and asked, what is going on? (the girls were arguing over a soccer ball). You loudly declared that they all should share and as they all ran off to practice, you grabbed Lexi's hand and said, Come on, Lexi. You'll be okay. Here, want to kick my ball with me? Let's go! And you ran off to practice together.
You never match your clothes, and you walk out of your room with such confidence. Today, you wore your sweater inside-out, knowing it was so. I'm pretty sure the only reason you didn't change it was because I told you it was inside-out. You definitely don't like to be told what to do.
You are fierce. You love fiercely, fight fiercely, compete fiercely, and whine fiercely.
You have been saving your allowance ($3/week=$1 tithe/$2 spend) for a while now. You've purchased Tic-Tacs, and a couple packs of gum, but nothing major. Last weekend, Elise came skating down in a new pair of rollerblades. You fell in love! You gathered all of your money from your 'Save' jar (and all of the nooks and crannies where random dollars were hiding) and counted $41. You were bummed because you needed a little more money to buy yourself a pair. Dad and I were so proud of your saving and choosing a great purchase, that we decided to pitch in the extra money needed. You were over the moon! We headed to Dick's Sporting Goods and you proudly handed the sales clerk your $41 in one dollar bills. Once home, you immediately put them on and realized just how hard it is to rollerblade. After your first lap around the block with Dad and me holding you up, I worried that you would want to return them, but you just laughed at your falls and inability to skate and said, "Let's go again!" We love your determination, Elle! After the sixth lap, Dad let go of you and you skated! You even fell on purpose so that you could work on finding your balance and just to know how it feels. Elle, when you choose to do something, you are gold! You have a strong internal drive.
