Aloha!!!



Here is the quick list of Madeline's traits as she enters into her 7th year:

**Enthusiastic. Almost too much so sometimes, but this girl has energy.
**Fun. She is always up for whatever is going on.
**Responsible. I never have to check her back pack or remind her of things. She is on the ball and keeping everyone else on track.
**Unrefined. I feel that we have a long way to go on her manners and social awareness. I am always reminding her of personal space and trying to teach her social graces. She takes my remarks well, tries, but all in all, it is not sinking in.
**Hard worker. Again, she is focused and ready to go. She puts in her best work.
**Inbetween. As a middle child, she struggles to find her place to get attention. Too old to be the baby, too young to be the first or best at things. She is keenly aware of what is fair or not and at times seems lost in her attempts to be noticed.
**Vocal. I am 100% sure that there has never been a thought that has passed through her mind that I have not heard. There are no secrets with this girl. Her honesty is legendary. She will always tell the WHOLE story, even if it incriminates her.



Happy Birthday Miss Moo!!!

Happy Birthday Madeline! You and Karina have a lot in common (especially the vocal part!) - wish we were closer!
