Dear Catherine Gracie,
What a year! It started out fabulously with lots of skiing and an amazing trip to Jamaica. And then COVID hit. And we were in lockdown in March and things haven't improved all that much. Good news the vaccine is out and hopefully by the summer we can resume a somewhat normal life again. You continue to be the outgoing, fun, over the top girl we love. Not much has changed for what you enjoy. Irish step is still going strong and you get to go to Nationals in July which you are so excited about. Gymnastics is a big thing these days that you are loving. You are still so creative and artistic, still not sure where you got that from! We are all excited about hopefully getting to ski this winter. Fifth grade was going to be a big year as you started middle school officially, but with covid things are not the same. You are remote 3 days and in school 2 half days. Not ideal but you are making it work. You actually prefer to be remote, you get your work done and are still an amazing student, so smart and diligent about getting your work done and getting good grades. Same posse of friends Emma, Gabby, Corah, Nola, Neve and Eliza. You got an early Birthday present, a phone, and you are obsessed. Electronics have become out of control in our house. Roblox, adopt me, TIC TOC which I despise! You want to be so grown up, doing what Charlotte does and have moved on from your toys, dolls for make up and clothes. God help us.
Hoping 2021 is a much better year for all of us. Continue to be the strong, fierce, positive and the fun loving girl you are. Be kind and help others. Love you to the moon and back Gracie girl!
Mommy
