Leah 7 years old (bonus - at school today it is Hat Day, and it is the 100th day of school!)
Leah at 7:
*Smart
*Loveable
*Great big sister!
*Loves to sing and dance
*Energetic
*Does well in school, but is distracted easily (she always wants to know what is going on around her)
*Reading is becoming more independent
*Does well in math, but thinks it is hard!
*Great in spelling
*Still loves Taylor Swift
*Watches mostly Disney Channel programs
*Social, loves to be around other people and kids – and really doesn’t like to play by herself
*Still can whine with the best of them (a trait Joe and I are both anxious for her to outgrow)
*Still is afraid to get close to people in costume, but she is trying to be more brave…because she wants to go to Disney World!
*Still working on correcting her vision (which is much better than it was originally). Right now she is getting a drop put in her strong (left) eye 3 days in a row each week which keeps her left eye constantly dilated which makes her have to use her right eye. If you look closely at the pictures from the birthday party, you can see it! We check back with the pediatric ophthalmologist the second week in March to see if it is working. She is currently seeing about 20/40 in her right eye with her glasses which isn’t too bad, but we are working on making it 20/20!
*Likes to do crafts
*Stubborn
*Participates in swimming, gymnastics, dance, soccer, t-ball, skating – she likes everything she tries and wants to keep doing each one. We are on a 2 activity limit, right now she is in Dance and Swimming!
*Did I mention, she is a WONDERFUL big sister! We really are quite lucky at how well she treats her little sister

I was able to take today off of work. I pretended in the morning as if I was going to work - routine stayed the same. I was able to surprise Leah at school for lunch. It was so much fun. She gave me the biggest smile and hug. So worth it!! :)
