Seeing all those photos just one right after the other does something to you doesn't it? All those years flying by with a little scrolling... I feel like we are almost to the point where Letty could write these posts herself which just opens up a whole other set of thoughts, right? How long do I keep this up? When does it become appropriate for her life to be her own and not mine to share? A discussion that will be here before I care to admit it. But back to the point, my eldest, my first, my baby, well, she turns seven today.
She is such a little lady now and has grown in so many ways in the past twelve months! School helped her grow in a hundred different ways and she has come such a long way academically. She loves her friends, running, singing along to every song regardless of knowing the lyrics, rollercoasters and other death defying rides, watching big people movies with mom and dad, crafting (all the crafting), her younger cousins, slushies and popsicles.... She's growing into her personality and really expressing her interests and is just living the dream these summer days.
In the past year she has lost two teeth, cut her hair shorter, made a slew of new friends, learned and learned and learned at school, sang her heart out at our church's clubs, gotten super polite with pleases and thank you's everywhere, won a few races, ran her first 5k, you name it!
So I did a little interview with her because how do you capture all that is Letteria in one little post? You can't. That's how.
