Seven Years Old

Jan turned seven last week. It was a much looked forward to event. David has been pretty busy but he had a day off a few days before her birthday and took the chance to take her our for a birthday lunch, just the two of them.

We had planned a little lunch party with three homeschooling friends but one couldn't come and one got sick. We were really excited to see the one who could make it.

Jan has really done alot of growing this past year. She is a big help to me with the younger children and is learning to be responsible for some of the house and kitchen chores. She does a good job and enjoys it. With some of her birthday money she found a chess set and she and Alec have spent hours playing it.

For her birthday she really wanted a chance to ride a real horse and we found a place where she could take a lesson. You had to be seven years old so her birthday was the first day that she could have had a lesson. She loved it and her teacher said that she caught on to everything really quickly.

Happy Birthday Jan! We are so glad God gave you to our family.
