A Party for a Princess




So, our not so little girl, turned 4 back in March...she had a fabulous princess birthday party here at home with her family. Here's a few tidbits about Maddie at age four:
  • She played Hoopster Tots and Soccer Tots this spring! She loved participating with her friends. She only complained a few times that her "breath hurt" (when she's winded and needs a break). I was surprised at how well she actually kept up!
  • She loves to play with her kitty Cheeto, swing on the playset, have tea parties & play dress-up. She prefers to play more with little stuffed animals than her baby dolls.
  • We find her singing to herself in mirrors or in a reflection of the oven or dryer...she loves to pretend that she's talking to someone, like being interviewed or has an imaginary friend she hasn't introduced us to yet...
  • She is an awesome eater--no food aversions here! She eats pretty much anything we put in front of her, especially all types of pasta!
  • Maddie says funny things like: "jammies ons, shoes ons, clothes ons" (to put items of clothing on, she asks this way),  she loves to eat "zert" (dessert), she can finally buckle her own "seatbelk" and enjoys going to "ballalay" (ballet) once a week.
  • She writes her name but it's from right to left...have I mentioned that she's left handed as well?
  • Maddie is a great sister- little & big. She is overly helpful with Sam at times! She loves to cuddle and hug him and calls him her "Little Buddy"
  • She's doing well in preschool...loves the music, her coloring is beautiful and she knows quite a few of the letters!

WOW! She plays soccer!!!???! That is SO encouraging to hear! Our daughter plays and we've wondered a lot about how we would handle that when our son (who has HLHS) wants to play too. Great to hear that maybe he can with some special considerations for breaks and rest.
