Mina Turned 6!

Mina turned 6 this year and is about to finish up her kindergarten year.  She has had so much fun in school.  I'm glad she loves it so much.  She's so smart and so creative.  We recently had a parent teacher conference.  Her teacher had nothing but good things to say about her.  She also informed us that Mina was tested reading at a 3rd grade level and that was the highest they were able to test her.  It was fun witnessing her learning to read.  One day she just decided, though, that she wanted to be able to read as well as her good friend, Teresa, so she started bringing tons of books with her to bed each night to read.  Then one night during scripture reading she was able to read everything on her own.  We were a little shocked.  We didn't realize just how hard she had been working on her reading skills.  She's also done very well with her art and even had a piece of her art work chosen to be in an art exhibit at a local mall.  Mina can just not sit still and do nothing.  She is always going, going, going working on one project or another.  There are always little messes all over the house from projects she's working on.  I love it and hate it.  Ha.  She recently discovered google and loves to sit at the computer and ask it questions.  She'll write down what she learns on paper or in a notebook and share it with us later.  Sometimes she's a great help around the house, other times, she just wants to be doing what she wants to be doing.  I don't blame her.  She can have quite the little attitude, but has such a kind heart.  I can't believe she is already 6.  I love her so much.  What would I do without my Mina?
