I am reading this book right now The Happiness Project. One of the suggestions in it is too keep the grandparents informed of their grand child. I started this blog 3 (?) years ago with that intent. Now my humble goal is to update this blog once a week. With info about Devi and such.
So where to start. Miss Devi is now a crazy 7 year old.
She is in the second grade now at the Open Class Room. It is a charter school in the avenues in salt lake city. (OCSLC.org) This is a picture of her classroom. We have co-oping days where the parents come in to help. I always go in on Mondays, where I help to do art class. In this picture the kids are learning about cave paintings and then got to make their own cave drawings. It turned out pretty cool, but charcoal is very messy. Notice how black her hands are! :)
Her favorite things to do are play wii, swing, swimming, ride her scooter, do art, play with her friends and her 2 cats. Her favorite music is Kimya Dawson and Amanda Palmer. Her favorite food is Honey dew melons, watermelons, avocados, and German pancakes. Her best friends are still E and M, Kieran, and Lyra.
She loves hosting tea party's. So I thought we would start having monthly tea parties at The Beehive Tea Room or at friends houses.
We had a blast. The tea there is amazing and I think everyone had fun. We had a proper tea.
She started her new school year of awesome. She is doing fantastic in her classes and is having a lot of fun being a mentor for the first graders in her class. She is learning to play chess and is actually pretty good at it. She goes to coffee with me and was playing chess with a guy at the coffee shop and he was impressed at how well she knew all the rules. She has a lot of fun with it which is awesome.
We are currently reading all the Narnia books and close to the end of the series. We are on sliver chair at the moment which is awesome because I have not even read it, yet.
We also have recently bought this fantastic book set that has 3 hard bound completely blank books in it. She is having a really good time designing how she wants her books to look and what she wants the stories to be. She keeps going back and forth if she wants to keep them for her self or design story books for her friends to give away. Her imagination is fantastic and the stories she is coming up with are incredible and imaginative. She is an incredible story teller and writer.
This is my favorite picture of her.
We move farther away so we have to take the train a lot. This is her on the train in the morning. Looking pretty self assured.

She also still really loves to get her face painted. This is her being a zombie a couple months ago during the summer. We have once a month 'Craft Lake City' and she got zombfied there.
Also she has a new cat, we lost skruffy and got a new cat a while ago.
Here is her cat spooky midnight shadow.
Also here is one of her latest paintings that I
actually have a picture of and really like.
