It really is hard to believe that this silly girl is FIVE!!! We have seen Mallory grow in so many different ways over this past year. She is currently going to Pre-K two days a week at Wylie United Methodist Church. The year didn't start out great (it was a bit of an adjustment), but Mallory is having a wonderful time. She knows all her colors, shapes, can count to 25, and can do very simple addition and subtraction. She has also learned and can remember the days of the week, the seasons, and months of the year. We impresses us all the time with her knowledge of school subjects and the use of her imagination to tell stories.
Besides growing in her learning, Mallory is growing in many other ways as well. She is getting taller and she looks like a little girl, not a toddler anymore. Mallory still has her sweet little girl voice, but is so grown up in her talking - her vocabulary and just the way she can carry on a conversation.
Mallory also LOVES Maggie. Maggie LOVES Mallory too. Most of the time, Mallory has the sweetest spirit when it comes to Maggie. She wants to make sure Maggie is part of what is going on and when she tells you about her day she always includes Maggie in the conversation "Maggie and I...." Mallory also loves to hug and kiss on Maggie too. Mallory knows that Maggie is not just her sister, but her gift from God. God CHOSE Maggie for Mallory and vise versa.
The many smiling faces of Mallory. I remember there was a time when she wouldn't even look at the camera, much less smile for it.
