Brielle's Birthday

Brielle turned 7!!! Brielle wanted to go to Amazing Jakes for her birthday party, so we told that she could only invite two friends if that's what she wanted. She invited Morgan Dayley and Logan Hays. They had a blast. Then a couple of days later we had a little family party with Papa and Marie. 

Brielle is in second grade now and still at Legacy. She loves jump roping, playing video games, watching Winx Club, and singing. She joined the school's jump rope club this year. She's very concerned about fashion and is a girly girl, the more glitter and sequins the better. She's gotten very good at singing and amazes me all the time. Every time we ride in the car she sings along with every song and then starts to harmonize with the melody and sounds very good. I've taught her the harmony part on a few songs too and she picks it up like it's easy. She's already way better than I am at hearing and hitting notes and can learn an alto part faster and better than I can (when she doesn't simply improvise her own). She is still taking piano and does very well, though she doesn't love practicing. She is still in ballet but the newness is wearing off and it's starting to become more of a chore than something she loves. She tolerates school and gets mostly A's and B's though this year she got some of her first C's. She's a great help at home and does all her homework on her own while I teach piano after school. Brooke loves her and they play together all the time. I love my sweet little seven year old.
