Homework

I got a homework assignment from Kay's teacher to write IN A MILLION WORDS OR LESS all about her. Her likes, dislikes, strengths, weaknesses, hopes, dreams, or anything that could help her learn more about her and her personality. Here is what I wrote:

All About K. L. P.

Born Monday April 19, 2004 at 4:51 pm

Kay is an aires and acts like one. Just as her horoscope says Kay is a bundle of energy and very dynamic, leading people along with her charm and charisma. She really is a pure joy to be around! She is very well liked, outgoing, talkative (too much so at times so watch out), sweet and thoughtful. She is full of energy and will keep you entertained for hours just being herself. She's dramatic, a little over the top, but that's what makes her her. Kay makes friends anywhere she goes, and isn’t afraid to be the center of attention. She is a very good girl; sweet and polite but can stubborn at times.

She is very creative, loves arts and crafts, and loves math! She will sit and do math problems on her own for hours. She loves the challenge that math offers her! She really does well with it and its fun for her. Reading however is a little more frustrating. She seems to get impatient and easily frustrated when trying to read on her own, although we are working on it. Every night before bed we take turns reading. I read one night, she read the next night and so on. Despite her frustrations, she really enjoys books and is captivated by the story line. She’s also very curious in science, bugs and animals, and the world around her.

In her free time she takes ballet and jazz dance classes, loves to swim, play cards, do puzzles, watch movies with her dad, get pedicures with mom, and play with her little sister. She loves her little sister! She is a picky eater, has a fear of elevators, is sometimes scared to try new things- however most of the time if you can get her to do it once, she loves it (going down a water slide for example). It’s more of the fear of the unknown that stops her from wanting to try new things. This shows me that despite her wild streak, she is in fact tactful and contemplative. Her favorite food is pizza; she loves vanilla ice cream, and is very much a girly girl if you couldn’t tell :)

I tell her each and every day how beautiful she is, and how special she is us. I simply can’t imagine having a better daughter than Kay! She is the light of my life and we can’t wait to see what a beautiful person she grows up to be.
