Wednesday's Child

Is my third child who also happens to be my third dd.   This dd goes by the name of Nemo (I warned you :-) )  Nemo will be 6 in a few short weeks.

Nemo is a true middle child.  She has two older sisters and two younger brothers.  She is right there in the middle of it all.  As the middle child she is my most independent.  She is my "can do" kid. :-) 

Nemo is a bouncy girl who enjoys playing and being with people.  She has a deep need to connect with those around her.  When she was a baby I co-slept with her.  She would wriggle herself right up against me where she would sleep contentedly through the night.  On the rare occassion she crawls into bed with me now,  she still squirms around until she's pressed right up against me.  The problem now is that she's so much bigger than when she was a baby she usually ends up hitting me in the face w/ her hands and kicking Daddy with her legs all night long.  LOL

Nemo is finishing up her K year here at home.  She loves school and is so excited when it's her turn to do anything.  She whizzed through her math book in record time and it shows. ;-)  Next year, for first grade, we're going to work on slowing things down a bit and getting it done right as opposed to just getting it done. 

 

Nemo's favorite animal is a zebra with cows coming in right behind.  She enjoys riding her bike and scooter and swinging on our swingset.  Nemo is bursting with energy and brightens my day. :)
