Lucky Seven


It's official.  She is a full-fledged seven-year-old.  The last year of innocence and cute baby teeth.  Her personality has changed so much even in the last few month, she is becoming more bold, which can be good in group settings, not so delightful when her mother is asking her to do something.  The questioning its good, right?

Memorable Jara moments of the past year-
  • Watching her laugh during Despicable Me 2
  • Her art decorating skills adorning her bedroom
  • Learning to read, from BOB books to Fancy Nancy and write, from one word descriptions to Columbus research papers. 
  • Learning to ride her bike without training wheels
  • Learning to swim
  • Combing her own pony-tails
  • Making her bed most mornings
  • The first dentist visit. eek
  • Helping with Elise in the mornings
  • Splashing in the waves at Newport Beach
  • Beginning ballet
  • Caring for her kitties, including dressing them up
  • Making new friends with neighbors (Jacob, Emma, Paige)
  • Listening to melodies on the piano and figuring out how to play them on her own
  • Calling me mom (no more mommy) sniff
Happy Birthday Jara! We are so grateful to have a such a wonderful girl!
