My Sassy Seven Year Old!

My dear sweet Olivia,

I cannot believe how quickly time has flown.  I feel like each year just goes faster and faster.  Sometimes I look at pictures and I still see you as four or five years old, and other times I find it hard to believe just how grown up you look.

This year has been full of exciting new things...first grade was amazing with all of the learning you did.  I am amazed at how fantastic of a reader you are!  Your dancing, singing, and theatrical talents are growing by leaps and bounds!  You have the same sass and feistiness that you've had since you were born, and I'm sure that will never change.  Keep growing, and learning, and figuring out this crazy world.  We'll be here for you through it all.

I love you more than words can tell!

Cheers to SEVEN!

I am cracked up because she's probably had Cap'n Crunch once and rarely gets to watch The Voice, but clearly they have made an impression on her!  Also, A LOT of these answers are pretty much the same as the last several years, which can be seen here, here, and here!

WHATTTTT?!

If you've got an extra 20 minutes on your hands....
