Watch out world! 7th grade!!!!!
|
This girl is amazing! Today was her first day of 7th grade! She reported she had a good day although she felt a little overwhelmed! She reported that many of her friends had moved on to other schools, but was happy to be reunited with her other friends. Kobi (her "boyfriend" and her are still sitting at the same table!
Her Daddy and I could not be more proud of her! She is really coming into her own! She is super kind to others, making them feel loved and special (except her annoying little brother...although sometimes she will try!). She shows a maturity beyond her years! This past weekend we went camping and we had another little girl from Lily's school Emery, also adopted from Guatemala join us. She and her friends welcomed Emery in with open arms and did everything in their power to make her feel comfortable in the group.
Lily is also beginning to take ownership of her health and fitness. She seems to be taking an interest in being more healthy. I am so proud of her. She has even taken a little interest in weightlifting! Today she had her swim evaluation and the coaches said she did a great job! She gets to move up to the next level. They even think once she gets back into shape she can move up to the level after that as well! Go Lily! She seems motivated, so we will see! It's nice to see her setting goals and going after them!
