The Cartwheel Queen

With a house FULL of teenagers - it is so great to have a 7 yr old! She is the greatest! She still loves us and is so cute! For the last 2 weeks - instead of walking everywhere - she does cartwheels! She does them down the hall, in the kitchen, outside and even to bed! It is so silly! I am starting to think she has forgotten how to just walk anywhere! What a goof!
We have a lot of Youth Firesides on sunday evenings at our house and so Grace and Steve spend that time together - since she is the only non-youth in our house - she is so cute - While she is waiting for Steve to get home from his sunday meetings she makes a list for her and him to do while the fireside is going on! What would we do with out her!!! I think we would get old!

Grace, can you teach Haley how to do a cartwheel? She has forgotten how. I do not think I could do one now if my life depended upon it! Love, Aunt Diana

Come to our house for family home evening- she will fit right in! It is a contest for forward rolls,cartwheels, head stands and back flips. Maybe it's because EVERYONE takes gymnastics from Uncle Guard????...and he encourages it!

I saw that list when we were over for the fireside, it made my insides melt. I especially love how she's budgeted her time - 1 minute for petting, 2 minutes for webkinz, and 3 minutes for the Bee movie - so cute!
