OK--6th Grade graduation surprised me with some tears! Who knew! Trying to comprehend how this happened all too quickly and a bit of anxiety thinking of participating in a similar ceremony 6 years from now! YIKES! Our baby, our first-born, just started kindergarten yesterday! And now she has completed her years of elementary school. We are so grateful she has such good friends--she loves her future "locker partner", Rachael! We are so proud of Maren--she really is this happy most of the time!
Maren has been singing (with perfect pitch) since she could talk! She participated in an SSA choir this past year and has aspirations to be a future American Idol! You go girl! Being the end of the school year, she has been able to share her many talents--SSA concert at the Provo Tabernacle (fabulous), 3 1/2 hour dance recital (going to pursue other talents), and a piano recital (love-hate relationship). What a gal!
We are so thankful to have such a delightful, wonderful daughter! She is such a great example for her younger brothers and sisters. Who couldn't love that cute face! We love you Maren!

It seems like she was just in kindergarten to me too. She is growing up exactly as I would have expected. Maren, you are so cute, happy, talented, and above all I'm sure you are still so down to earth. No wonder your mom is so proud.
Is Maren only graduating from 6th grade? She has seemed so grown up for such a long time. It was so great to see you last week. I appreciated your wonderful friendship! Thanks for the support. Love you!
Congrats Maren! We love Maren and wished so badly she lived next door so she could be our babysitter! Can't believe 7th grade is just around the corner! Look out mom and dad!
Oh-if we still lived by each other (darn Dennis's jobs) we could have cried together. Hold on for the ride because if you think that went fast-jr. high/high school goes 100 times faster. I am going to be in UT in three weeks for three weeks-I am going to be calling you because three weeks with my family is going to make me nuts =).
