Birthday coming up!

Hey sweet girl! This has been a busy year for all of us. You are growing and changing so fast that I feel like if I blink, I will miss something. You are in kindergarten with home school and learning like crazy. Your mommy and daddy have decided to home school due to the state of our schools and the moral code taught. They have prayed and asked God for guidance and He is blessing this whole experience. You are thriving and learning so fast. You love math and are really good at it. You can read, tell time and reason really well. I am amazed on the days that I teach, at how fast you are learning. You are so much fun to be with now (unless you are in your drama mode). You are funny and love to joke around. You are making friends and enjoying the social aspect of your life. It is great to hear you talk about your friends and see how much you care about them. With this, comes the possibility of hurt feelings. That makes me anxious. I don't ever want to see your sweet heart broken. I know it will happen but I dread it. I hope I can keep my redneck Ge in check so I don't show out when that happens. As your 6th birthday approaches, I am still so very blessed to get to spend time with you and love on you often! You are such a joy and I love you a bushel and a peck!! As always, Ge loves you! 10-14-2016 Avery

First 2016 update

Hey there precious girl! It has been almost 6 months since my last update. I need to do better. You change so fast that I really need to update much more often. You are out of preschool now. You did amazing! You love to learn and learning comes easy for you. It is so exciting to watch you learn new things. Your mommy is going to home school you this next year. I am so glad God has led your parents to that decision. Our world has fallen so far from God and His commands. You have a dance recital soon. You have decided that you do not want to continue dance after this year and try gymnastics instead. You will be good at this I think. Your love for horses is still very big! You are so tender hearted toward all animals. You have a nurturing spirit that loves to take care of things. You are rally starting to swim now. You love the water and especially the beach. Mommy and daddy take you at least once a year to the beach and that makes you very happy. Just recently, you told your sister all about what the gospel meant. You didn't call it the gospel but you explained it very well. I bet God is going to use you in a big way! You already love Him and recognize that He is the creator. So, here at the farm, we still have lots of chickens. You love the silkies. We also now have a llama and an alpaca. They are not trained to allow us to pet them much yet but I am working on it. They could both live until you are in your twenties. You are still a blessing and a joy to love and care for. You have Ge's heart sweet girl! As always, Ge loves you! 06-12-2016 Avery
