Tessa, You are prepping for Kindergarten. Dad and I are reluctant to send you because you're so young for your grade. You have worked SO hard, independently, to show us you ARE ready. You are always busy coloring, drawing and asking me how to spell words. You want to show me how smart you are. We went to have you tested at Victor Falls and you proudly went back with a teacher to be tested. This isn't like you. You are EXTREMELY SHY. I was the same way. You never want me to leave you at school, you always need a long hug good bye and you are quick to give me one when I pick you up from preschool. Strangers say,"hello" and you just hide. You're fine and happy without me, but it is always hard for you to leave me. You are a Momma's girl through and through. But you sure do flirt with your Daddy. Today you said, "hey boyfriend" to him and then whispered, "don't tell Mom I said that." HA! You are also really starting to be a comedian. You're witty and sarcastic. You always make us laugh and love to be silly with us. You would never act like this with strangers and even need to warm up to family most times. We sure love seeing your silly, spunky side and hope someday you share it with the world.
I love you more than you know, shy girl.
hugs&kisses,
"momma"
