On Lucy...

Our Lu has had two "firsts" recently...her first dance recital and her first piano recital!  Her dance class was an hour each week, Sept.-May and she had two dances: tap and ballet.  She was so excited and her gracefulness made me cry...

For piano, she performed the song "Spanish Guitar" and was so confident that she didn't even take her book on stage with her.  She has been very committed to both of these activities this year and it was a joy to watch her have fun!

She had so much fun in first grade and she's looking forward to second grade in the Fall!  But not before a summer of lots of relaxing...our Lu loves reading, jumping on the trampoline, wearing tank-tops, and riding her bike down to the library!  Her last few months of school were full...they had a first-grade program, a class party, field day, and a class picnic!  The most common treat for this age seems to be Popsicles...we have already eaten a lot of Popsicles this year!  She will bridge from being a Daisy to Brownies in August - we continue to love doing Girl Scouts together!

Lucy taught herself how to write her name in cursive...we find her whimsical writing all over the place...

she puts the COLOR inside of my world..."
