Lilly Scott turned 8 on January 11. We discuss her birthday party at least twice a month. Every time she attends a party it becomes exactly how she wants to celebrate her own. Finally she decided what she wanted, and I agreed to a slumber party with her closest friends.
Carsen and Bailey came to celebrate with us. They were the ring leaders of the party, and LS was excited to have 'cool' girls there with her friends. It's already started, I'm no longer cool.
The next morning LS asked to go skating. We met a couple of her friends there, and they had a blast.
Cadence, LS and Gracie
Even Paisley got in on skating. She wanted to skate so badly, but I was solo and had Wells. We will definitely have to go back to let her try it! This time, Ms. Rachael and Cadence walked around with Paisley. She felt like big stuff.
After skating we met Mimi, Geep and Caitlin at Steak N Shake per Lilly's birthday lunch request.
Then we came back to the house.
Caitlin brought her rollerblades so she and LS could skate around the cul de sac.
We ended the birthday celebration with a bubble bath and the jets going full force. The girls loved all the bubbles. It made quite the bubbly mess.
Lilly Scott/ Scotty,
You are such a girl. You love dresses and shoes. You covet your personal time and acknowledge when it is needed. Your imagination is incredible as you can entertain yourself with the most random items. Reading isn't your favorite, but you are learning how important it is. I appreciate what a helper you can be, and I love the heart you possess. You get frustrated with Paisley who wants to be with you every second, but you really are a great big sister. When I hear how you teach her and love her, it touches my heart. Thank you for giving her the attention she craves from you.
You're a smart one! You make great grades, and you have so many friends who adore you. Drama is definitely a part of our world with you, and I hope one day it pays you well ;o)
You love, love cheetah print. Your laughter is contagious, and once the giggle box is turned, laughter fills the room.
I love you, sweet girl. You are a mix of dependent and independent. You struggle with not being good at everything and often give up after the first attempt. One goal we are working on is being involved in a team sport- swimming. We are starting with lessons to strengthen your swim strokes, and hopefully you'll progress to swim team. We'll see!
You are such a homebody. You would stay in your pajamas and at home 24/7 if you could. It's actually an ordeal to go places sometimes because you resist. Stubborn could be a word to describe you, my darling. I'm not sure where you get it ;-)
We love you, LS!
-Mom and Dad
