Six.Eleven Years

6.11 Years 

  • Live with Louie has been so fun. I love seeing you carry him around like a baby. He is horrible about having accidents and we are working on crate training him, you you all love cuddling him and showing him off to your friends. 
  • School is starting. It has been such a fun summer, but you are anxious to start school. You found out that your teacher is Ms. Hand. That is who you really wanted since the other first grade teacher was a new hire. Eloise is in your class and also Tessa the new girl at church. Because you already know Ms. Hand, you feel like you are the queen of the room. 
  • We got to start gymnastics this month with Jessie and Sonora. We met in Silverton on Mondays, right after school. I love that you get this weekly catch up with them. You quickly learned your cart wheel, is working on your handstands, and really enjoy the beam work. 
  • Grandma and Papa Matthews came out for a few days. They were really busy days, which I felt bad about. We were able to sneak away to the beach for a day because that night, Maggie was cheering for the Stayton vs. Seaside game. The weather turned out to be awesome. We flew kites and jumped in the waves. You had pants on and ended up soaked by the end. I was grateful that I had packed a clean pai for you to change into for the game. We stayed at the arcade, bought candy at a cute shop, and ate calm chowder for dinner. 
  • I went to Paris for a week with Grandma and Auntie Annie. There were several mornings where Sam had to help you get ready for school because Dad was already at work. We hired Kayla Webb to come after school so you wouldn't be alone. But by the end of the week, you were missing me and was weepy a bit more. You were happy that I brought home macrons and necklace and hat for you though.
