Eve

Who is this young lady?????  If anyone is growing up too fast, it's Eve.  She is 110% in every way.  With her activity level, her temper, her compassion, you name it.  110%.  She makes me want to scream one minute, then I couldn't love her more the next.  She pushes every boundary, and one day she will learn to steward that and move mountains.  She is beautiful and fun and friendly.  She talks 110% of the time.  She is obsessed with Star Wars 110%.  She is 110% hugs.  She is training for a triathlon!  Since she decided to do that and we found a race for her, she's been on her bike and running every single day, and she's loving it!  She loves to cook, especially muffins.  She can do it all on her own, beginning to end, except we're still working on the cleaning up part.  She's doing very well in school.  She is a social butterfly.  She is loving dance and piano, and has really developed in these two over this year.  I'm amazed at what I hear her play sometimes!  Most times Eve would rather play with her friends, but sometimes she takes a sibling under her wing and just loves the heck out of them.  She enjoys helping the younger ones (or bossing, there's a fine line, but I think her motivation is helping).  She loves being given tasks to complete on her own.  She loves taking care of Bo.  She loves fixing her hair and would love to do makeup if I would just let her.  She loves to paint and mix things.  She's always into something, wondering what will happen, and usually making a giant mess.  I'm always encouraging her to be herself 110% because herself is an amazing person.
