The joys of having a six year old!

Our daughter Acilia is quite a delight!
She fills our days with goodness and light!



Acilia was born in June, what a great month! We have celebrated the last three birthdays by taking her horse back riding. Her true passion in life! It's been a joy to see her grow and change; her personality shine! She has two significantly different personalities. One is sweet, kind, sharing, compassionate, friendly, well mannered & funny. The other is one that only comes out when she isn't happy with what she's been told, or if she doesn't like the way she was treated (ex. if you tell her to do something without saying "Please" *ahem*). She has a face that we call the "frowny face" and she becomes ambivalent ( simultaneous and contradictory attitudes or feelings (as attraction and repulsion) toward an object, person, or action). It's interesting to see her blossom! In the last year alone, she has really come into her comfort at school and her ways of sitting quietly and waiting for the teacher to ask her if she needs something, have been traded with confidently asking for what she needs and expressing herself through writing! She is expressive and she is gaining points in self esteem daily! I am so proud of my little shining star whom I must add, is a little girly, prissy clone of me!
