But enough about Lucy...

Then again, you can't really get too much of Lucy.  We barely remember the shy baby, very reserved and cautious.

If you know her now, you'll agree she was born to be a star.

She is strong and capable, theatrical and thoughtful, imaginative and always able to "do it herself".

She attends the Vermont Ballet Theater School and has been practicing a recital piece for the end of year performance in June.  She and her classmates are Morning Glories.

Miss Mel has been teaching at the school since before Anthony (son, not grandson, now 31) attended and performed in The Nutcracker for many years.  She is perfect for these slightly scattered little girls, firm, but kind and patient.

Lucy's other grandmother and I will be helping backstage this year.  Bring on the crafty projects to entertain while the girls wait for the big finale!

Graduation Day

Lucy went to a graduation / end of school party at Saxon Hill Preschool in Jericho on Tuesday.  It has been a wonderful environment and she is the sixth member of her Dad's family to attend.  Her little cousin will be next.

Lucy was thrilled to be the bearer of the cake.

Lucy is a great planner and is preparing strategies for riding the bus to kindergarten in the fall.

She is brave, daring and fun-loving.  She has never seen a tree she wouldn't want to climb.  That's her self-portrait on the cover of her school binder.  This is Christine, one of her teachers.

 And, did I mention there was cake?
