Addie Reese....

This little girl who stole my heart 4 1/2 years ago ( she is very quick to point out that she IS 4 AND 1/2) is changing and growing into... can I say it... a big school aged girl. Addie is just to simply state it FUN. The sweetness is at an all time high and the fits and tempertatums are at an all time low. Sometimes I really have to think about when her last "outburst" was.

She loves going to school and is learning a lot. Addie has two good friends at preschool camp, English and Makayla. She looks forward to seeing them every Monday and Wednesday. She loves to work in her workbooks and draw pictures of her family and friends. She also has adjusted to Aubree leaving Mrs. Carlene's to go to Kindergarten leaving her to be the "big older girl". Addie now gets to be the big girl at Mrs. Carlene's with "little Sarah"... Addie's name for her and Laken. She can write almost all of her letters and her name (which makes this teacher mother very happy). She can color very well and can write her name. The only problem with her name it sometimes she writes her d's backwards which makes her name Abbison. When I point this out by calling her said name, she gets really mad and says, "I AM NOT ABBISON."

So here are some fun facts about my sweetie pie little girl
