4 Years Old

It's really hard to believe that a little red headed girl was born four years ago on a very cold winter night. I came out screamin' ready to go, energy to burn. So really not much has changed. I still have tons of energy to burn but I'm kept busy and there is no trouble going to bed at night. Some might say I'm over scheduled....the doctor says I need to be kept busy....'cause I am!

This past year I've done a lot. I've been to Maui, Winnipeg, Saskatchewan, Banff, Olds (several times), Calgary, and several little camping spots around Alberta. I continue to take Taekwondo as well as started french preschool with Madame Margaret and Madame Jennifer. I take skating and gymnastics / dance. I recently added cross country skiing lessons in January. Of course in the summer there was swimming lessons. I'm always anxious each morning to find out what's on the agenda.

This past year I gained 4 pounds - yes, I'm now 34 pounds and I'm about 43 inches tall.

Some fun facts:

Favorite foods - milk, mini wheats for breakfast, jam sandwiches, cucumbers, red peppers, chocolate digestive cookies, apples, yogurt, grapes, popcorn, and water.

Favorite things to do - beading and other crafts, coloring, workbooks, reading, playing outside in any weather, riding my bike, tobogganing, skiing, dancing, swimming, taekwondo,

Favorite t.v. shows - anything (when I'm allowed to watch)

Favorite books - any and all

Friends - Jacob, Ayla, Moira, Amity, Nolan, Makenna, and Tyson

What I Want to be when I grow up - Dentist, Pilot, Go to the Moon (astronaut), and a school patrol crossing guard.

Being four has a lot of responsibility. I'm told I shouldn't pee my pants anymore and I'm also told that I shouldn't pick my nose and eat it. Mmmm....do I really want to grow up?
