Rockin' Her Own Look

In a family of five girls, we have a child that is truly in the middle - she's #3.  Arianna has always been a ball of energy from the time she was an infant and has a bubbly, vivacious personality.  She is very bright and excels in school, but it is her thinking outside of the box that always surprises me.  She is artistic, rhythmic, inquisitive, can memorize almost anything upon hearing it, and replies with the right answer even when we think she isn't listening to us.  Arianna also has very definite opinions about what she likes and doesn't like.  She loves the color pink and yet she is also a very athletic go-getter.  There are times when I get frustrated with her because she pretty much does everything a little differently than the "norm", but in the end this is one of the traits I love most about her.  I'm going to stand back and watch my 1st grader as she keeps becoming the very interesting, sweet, and wonderful girl that she is and anticipate many fun surprises from her in the future!
