Update on Ellie...

Hard to get Ellie to let me take her picture, so I'll just have to write about what's going on with my little teen! Hard to believe she's already 14! We went to North Oconee High School parent night for upcoming freshman this week. Her teachers recommend 3 of her 4 courses be honors classes. It means a heavier workload, but she's up for it. She also wants to be on the high school yearbook team, like she is for Macomb Bridge Middle School right now. She is pretty independent and stays on top of her studies and seems to know exactly what she wants. She decided against playing softball for the high school and just stick with rec softball, that starts this week, by the way. She's also taking piano and riding lessons, but riding will be on hold during softball season!
