A New Year of School and a Sweet Little Girl







She's not a little baby anymore. I guess we had better come to terms with it...sniff sniff.

The truth is, Gracie has grown into such a sweet, helpful, and smart little five-year-old. She is doing so well in her schoolwork and is quite diligent about getting it done each day. She is such a little book worm, reading chapter books at record speed. (She bought one last Sunday from the church book store and completed the entire chapter book today- not a week later!)

She is a delight to her mommy and daddy and is always so careful to help her sister in a very responsible way.















The school year that has begun was one that Dee Dee (or Deeds, as we affectionately call her) was a little apprehensive about because of the cursive writing. She was nervous about not being able to do it, etc. The Lord has helped her incredibly and we are so proud of her hard work!! (The pictures I posted are of her first ever writing homework...and she really did a great job!!)

On Friday, she even asked to begin her day with her CURSIVE writing book!

Praise the Lord!! He will help her each step of the way. We are so thankful for our Gracie and the wonderful little lady she is becoming.

It's great to see the Lord's hand in those things. A great thing to look back on when introducing new things.
