Happy 7th Birthday, Kiah

It is hard to believe that Kiah is 7!  She had an amazing year.  She did so well as a first grader.  We absolutely loved her teacher.  We were sad to see her move at the end of the year.  But Kiah recently wrote her a letter, and I am pretty sure we will hear back from her soon.  Kiah got great grades. She was Star Student one month. We are so excited that she loves school so much.  And we cannot believe how great a memory she has!  Truly impressive!

She grew to be just over 4 ft tall.... which allowed her to go on her first grown-up roller coaster back in November.

She lost her second tooth.  She has 3 more that are loose now!

She Sprained her ankle for the first time.

She spent lots of time making her brother and sister laugh!  And she makes us laugh, too!

 She gave a talk in Primary on Service


She had her first speaking part in a school play.


 She still LOVES mints

Was was a little more daring... but only a little.  She only made it about 6 feet up.  But that is huge for her!

She was a lot more daring in the water.  She went on rides by herself.  

She took swim lessons and can now swim unassisted.  

We celebrated her birthday with friends earlier in the year.  But We still wanted to do something for and with her on her birthday.  So she got her hair cut

and some cute little face painting

and...

then...

her ears pierced!
