More Fun

Emma breaking out the bike for the year's first ride. Training wheels are still in tact, much to Emma's liking. We're still building on the confidence of preschool success, tee ball victories, and reading and writing aptitude. A few boo-boos from last year make Emma a little hesitant, but she still manages to find the fun in safety.



Emma was invited to the birthday party for a tee ball friend, Ethan, held at his Maple Street School. Most of Emma's teammates and coaches are associated with the school, a private K-8 program in Manchester, VT. The grounds are beautiful, and perfect for a bunch of bike-riding, fun-driven 5 and 6 year-olds.

Another rite of summer--strawberry shortcake. And yes, Emma enjoys. Though against the grain of Emma's sweet tooth, she's not a big fan of whipped cream. Strawberries are one of her favorite treats.
