Today is my niece’s sixth birthday! This is the one who lives in Chicago with my brother Brian and sister-in-law Linda. All the pictures I’ve seen of her are great and she resembles Brian so much.
With this age, Kindergarten starts in the Fall. I hope she enjoys it as much as I did…at least I recall liking it most of the time despite being in the top reading group (we had a lame name which was why I wanted to be with the average kids).
I left a message at the house, asking what does a girl her age like. Probably too old for Dora & Diego but way too old for an iPod, clothes and the ultra-girly stuff. We’re open to suggestions.
Jun 2, 2008 Update: Talked to Brian yesterday. Anna will be enrolling in Kindergarten since Illinois has a different cut-off date for enrolling children. I had a fun conversation with her on the phone too. She received a bracelet and breakfast at Le Peep is what I mainly heard.
