Our Lovely First Grader


Girl Scout Daisy meetings have been going very well all school year. We meet at school every two weeks on Monday night for 1.5 hours. We had an Investiture Ceremony where the girls got their pins and recited the Girl Scout Law and the Girl Scout Promise for their families.

We all went to school one day to see Annalise's class performance of Snow White (above, greeting her audience, and curtsy-ing). They learned their lines, practiced, and performed all in one day. Annalise was a fairy (a liberty the playwright took for sake of class size), and enjoyed dressing up.

Annalise is trying out many different sports, and is interested in several. She went to a hockey clinic, where she already seemed ahead of the game since she was skating so well, as well as a fastpitch softball clinic, put on by the Hopkins high school team. She loved learning how to slide, throw the ball, catch, and bat, but did not end up signing up for a team this summer, because she is not interested in participating in a game-type situation. Perpetual practice is her preference!
