Our Star!

Star of the Week
"Starring" Miss Natalie Quist

Kids get such a kick out of being the Star of the Week at school and Natalie was no different! Oh, the anticipation! Usually, the little star is on or around their birthday. However, being as Natalie has a summer birthday, she was able to be the star last week. She VERY carefully sifted through all of our pictures for just the right ones! With little help from me (just organizational mostly), she put together her poster for school. Great job Natalie! At the end of the week, she got to share a treat with her class. Being as it was Valentine's Day week, we opted for something other than c-a-n-d-y! Who doesn't love pencils and stickers?!


It was so fun to reminisce with her as we put together her poster with pictures from the last 6 1/2 years. Natalie is such a fun girl with a beautiful smile. She is so good at many things. She loves gymnastics and jumping on a trampoline (any trampoline because we don't have one). Did I mention that she is awesome at roller blades? Natalie is really good at riding her bike. In fact, she taught herself how to ride her bike at age 4! Natalie loves school. She is an excellent reader! Natalie is almost reading small chapter books. She is very good at math and is a very good student. She has an amazing ear for music and picking out tunes on the piano--and she hasn't even started piano lessons! She absolutely LOVES singing with her new choir group. She is the best big sister--she and Millie love to play together (mostly) and she is so attentive to and helpful with Eli. And of course, she is the best little sister--she adores Davis and Maren. Natalie is always willing to take our dog, Roxy, on walks. She loves Buttermilk Pie (her choice for her 6th Birthday treat), Dad's Special Spaghetti and water! Even though the Star of the Week has come and gone, Natalie Jane will always be our STAR! We love you Natalie!
