Mikayla

This girl.  This kindergartener.  This spunky little 5 year old.

So much life packed inside her little body.

Mikayla keeps us all on our toes.  My Mom jokes

that Aiden can't tell a lie, Caileigh will tell you what you want to hear, and Mikayla will tell you what you don't want to hear.  So true!

She loves to draw and create.  Here is a picture she made for Aiden when he was sick.

This is a family picture.  Look carefully beside the yellow dog and you will notice two teeny, tiny people.  Not the two yellow people beside me in the pink pants and black shirt (Those are Caileigh and Mikayla).  The really, teeny, tiny people up by the dogs ear.  You will probably need to click on the photo to make it larger to see.  Apparently that is Alex and Jordan.  Hmmmm, very interesting.

Mikayla has been fun to teach.  She is eager, inquisitive, and a quick learner.  Her favourite subjects are art and piano.  She loves hands on activities.  She's great at telling stories.

Mikayla loves listening to audio CD's.  She wishes her friends could come over everyday and feels that they are never here long enough.  After a full day of having friends over she usually announces, "But we didn't have enough time to play!"

Mikayla has a vibrant smile and can be extremely silly and goofy.  She loves to make people laugh and is a performer.  She's our homeschool class clown.  She's excited about playing the piano and reciting a poem in the music festival in April.

She loves sweets!  After church doughnuts are a favourite.  It must have sprinkles!  Candy can also be quite motivating for her in the right situations:)

Mikayla likes being outside but really doesn't like the cold.  She's happiest when swinging, riding her bike or sledding.
