Since year 8 is special with a baptism we let the girls choose just a few friends to do an activity and a treat with. Like a small birthday party but not at our house and no invitations, decorations and planning :). Easier for me. So Lucy invited a few school friends and we went swimming at the Swimmin' Hole in PG where the girls have taken lessons before. They swam and ate creamies and popsicles and had a great time.
For her birthday she got new LEGOS, Bluey shirt, a polaroid camera from Grandma Close and her very own flute to start lessons. She chose to have Oreo balls and ice cream for her birthday dessert.
Some things about Lucy. She just started flute lessons in February. She wanted to choose a different instrument than her sisters but wanted something small enough and that she could play in church. Just 2 months into lessons but she is liking it. And realizing how hard it is to make a sound out of that instrument. I couldn't even do it!
Lucy is full of light and life and constantly wanting to have fun with friends and sisters. She loves to entertain and put on "shows" for others. Lucy is determined and has made HUGE strides in school. Math and reading are becoming easier and easier now because she is determined to work hard. She won the "Little Abe Award" at school because her teacher nominated her for being "drama free" and "a kind friend to everyone" and for "working so hard in school." We love Lucy and love her in our family.
