7th Heaven

Today is Tessa's 7th birthday.  She is a great little girl who is funny and smart and sassy and a wonderful addition to our family.

She celebrated her birthday with a scooter and some new doll clothes and a trip back to USU's Aggie Marketplace with it's Mongolian BBQ and Nacho Bar and All-You-Can-Eat Aggie Ice Cream.

To celebrate Tessa's 7th birthday, I thought I'd share 7 Great Things About Tessa.

1 -  She is a great reader.  She loves to read her cute little chapter books, like Amelia Bedelia, June B Jones and American Girl.  She has over 80 AR points and loves seeing that number go up as she takes her tests.

2 - She loves to dance and perform.  She is on her third year of dance and is looking forward to her recital in two weeks.  She was in the Opera club at school and recently performed in the Summit Elementary original opera "King of Candy" as a licorice.

3 - She doesn't like the wind.  She loves to play outside, but if it's at all windy, she stays inside.

4 - She loves popsicles.  I buy the cheap "Fun Pops" because if I bought the pricier Otter Pops during the summer we'd go broke.

5 - She is a sweet girl.  Her teacher at school is always telling me how nice she is to the kids in her class and how much she tries to help them at school.

6 - She loves to play games on the computer but doesn't like to play on the Wii.

7 - She wants to be a dance teacher or an inventor or a school teacher when she grows up.

Happy Birthday, Tessa!  We love you.
