Today Taija turns 7! S-E-V-E-N people!! I can't even grasp that she has been the center of my life for 7 years! She is growing up too fast!
Taija is such a great kid. She is so funny! She loves playing with her brother and sister, but let me tell you, she is so very bossy!! It drives me nuts listening to her boss Luke and Mika around, but I have to tell myself that if they are okay with it, I need to be too. Taija loves to do puzzles!! She is pretty good too! This past year she has also developed a love of legos. A love her daddy shares!
Taija moved up to the 1st grade this year and started at a new school. She was accepted into the Gifted Program during the spring and has LOVED it! Taija was so excited that she would get to take the bus...me, not so much! Thankfully one of her friends from Kindergarten is on the same bus and they are so cute together. He saves her a seat each morning! Taija has also continued piano. She is getting quite good and has far surpassed my abilities (not saying too much)! I love watching her play! I hope it's something that she will always work hard at and appreciate.
And since it's her birthday and because I'm her mom I get to continue to brag about my Taija girl!! This year she has continued to read and she is an awesome reader! She is now into chapter books and loves to read. If she comes across a word that she hasn't seen before she will sound it out. I love listening to her read and just see her mind working! One of the amazing perks of being this girl's mom! Taija is of course still obsessed with horses! This year her party theme was My Little Ponies! Rainbow Dash being her favorite! She still loves to run like a horse and pretend to be a horse.
I am so thankful that our little goose is a part of our family! Happy Birthday Taija! Love you!
