Our Jayda

Turning four has really done wonders for Jayda. She's calmed down so much now that she's gained more independence and has outlets to express her energy and imagination. She is a great big sister and finds it very important to protect/terrorize/love her little brother. They are very cute when they play and Skyler is completely content to play along by her rules.

Jayda is such a girly girl and LOVES anything pink, sparkley and frilly. It's really funny to see her in primary in a sunbeam class made up entirely of boys, with little pink Jayda right in the middle. It doesn't stop her from sharing her love for all things princess, and the boys take it like good sports. She is convinced that her and her cousin Brannon are going to get married someday, but I'm working hard to teach her that they just don't allow that anymore.

She loves her preschool class with Miss Pat and Miss Joy. She's made some really good friends in there, one of whom she hugs every day when I pick her up. She is getting really good and learning her letters and numbers and has started spelling words. I can't wait to hear her read! She is very creative and is constantly coloring, drawing and writing "letters" to her friends. I never have envelopes!

Jayda has a big heart and is so sensitive to other peoples feelings as well as her own. She is always ready to entertain and impress, sometimes to a fault! We love our Jayda!
