Wrapping up Summer at the beach

Thanks to Amanda, we spent the weekend at Carolina Beach. You know our girls LOVE the beach, & this weekend a perfect way to wrap up the summer. We even got in an evening of back flips on the trampoline & train rides at the boardwalk after a great dinner at Gibby's on the water. Good times. 




Can you tell we had fun!?!

It's her last day being 4

This is one smart kid. All parents want to brag on their children, we do too, but more importantly we want to offer this child the learning environment where she can continue to excel. This 4 year old entered kindergarten "early" because she misses the birthday cut off by 4 days. She had to do early entry testing, & she tested at the average age of a 7 year old at 4 1/2, she entered kindergarten in the 99.7% which means on average her learning ability & comprehension are ahead of 997 out of 1000 kids entering kindergarten. She had to do many tests, & she loved every minute of it. She has rocked her first few weeks of kindergarten making new friends, having a perfect behavior record & loving coming home to only do homework right when she walks in the door. Her writing beats most males (sorry guys) & her drawings, well, lets just day it's in her blood. Her attention to detail is impeccable, & her maturity amazes us on a daily basis. Her memory, well, it's probably fair to say she remembers every person she has met, every place she has been, every book she has read, pretty much her brain is a sponge that soaks it all in. Kate, we promise to do our best as parents to let that amazing brain of yours continue to soak it all in. We couldn't be more proud of you and what you have already accomplished, & we can't wait to see what you do & learn as a 5 year old. We thought you were amazing 5 years ago when you were born, we had no idea being your parents could truly be this good.
