Molly Magic

Molly did a great job with her magic trick!

Darth

Molly is getting ready for Halloween.  She is a unique kid.

First grade is going well with Mrs. Kloss.  Unfortunately today she got in a bit of trouble and had to spend some time in the principals office.  She was devastated...

Molly is doing really well in piano and soccer.

Vermont

Molly has had fun in Vermont.  She has had many friends around including Evi, Ella, Emma, Alex, and Andrew.  She has enjoyed playing with especially with Ella who is 4.

She has been riding her bike a lot.  We also climbed the mountain and went to the fair.

Triathlon

Even with tiny wheels Molly did great in her triathlon debut. Third place. She was super focussed.

Spain

Molly was a great traveller to Spain for Kasey's cousins wedding.  We stayed in Benicassim for a week and then went to Madrid.  Molly really liked the Royal Palace in Madrid and riding the tourist busses.

Soccer

Soccer is over!  Molly had a good year.  She is fast.

Piano Work

Player

The boys love Molly.

Update

Molly got her 6 year check-up.  She is getting a little tiny again.  In 33% for height.  Was 45% last year.  She is doing very well in kindergarten.

Let it Go

Birthday

Molly is 6!  Can't believe it.

Molly had a fun birthday.  Jack slept over and we all went to Friendly's for breakfast.  Everyone had chocolate milkshakes for breakfast.

For lunch Grandma, Aunt Patty, Hunter, and the Guereras came over for a lunch/party.  It was just nice enough to play outside.

Molly swings at everything, but she can boom the wiffle ball.

Report Card

Molly had a great report card.  She is doing well in school.  She excels at reading, and is at Level K.  Mrs. Musante is a good teacher for Molly.

Birthday Party

I have Molly's birthday party this afternoon.  We are going to Monster Mini Golf and pizza with Molly, Claudia and four other kindergartners.  Molly asked three boys to come to the party.  I think Molly is a player.

Cookies

Molly sold Girl Scout cookies with her Daisy troop.  She was really proud of her cookies.

Molly is practicing basketball dribbling all the time.  She is also going to softball practice once per week.  She is nervous about the ball hitting her.  But she throws really hard.

Molly was really excited to go to the Father Daughter dance. She was happy her sister was able to go to. Lots of her friends were there.

Bobby McFerrin

The girls and I had a special visit to New York City last night.  We went to the Time Warner Center for dinner and a concert at Jazz at Lincoln Center.  JALC is a huge facility with three theaters.

We had dinner at Landmarc which is a big restaurant, but it is very kid friendly.  They even brought cotton candy out at the end of the meal.

We then went to the Bobby McFerrin concert.  We sat in one of the boxes behind the stage.  The sound was not great but we had the box to ourselves and could see really well so it worked out.

January

Molly is going to try a bit softball at a winter skills camp.  She will probably do fine, but we aren't sure if she will tolerate or love actual games.  She likes the action in soccer.

She is still reading really great at school.  She is challenging the teacher, for sure.

Her friends at school are Arban, Mariella, Jackson, Ruby, and Erin.

Claudia is her best friend.

Her piano playing is improving.  She reads very well.
