Olive is now 50 pounds (25th percentile) and 51 inches tall (70th percentile). She gained 5 pounds and grew 2 inches this year. Here are her stats from year
one,
two,
three,
four,
five,
six, and
seven.
Olive is in 2nd grade this year. She is very kind and caring to her classmates and teacher. She notices if someone is having a bad day and wants to cheer them up. She has several friends in her class. She lost her two front teeth at Christmas and now the two beside them, so she has had a toothless smile for months. She is still a girl scout, but she isn't interested in any sports. She spends her free time playing with Hannah.
Here is what her teacher wrote about her on the most recent report card:
Olive has completed a very successful 3rd quarter. Her hard work and determination are evident in her excellent marks. Olive
should be very proud of her efforts. She is always ready for a new challenge and consistently demonstrates good character when
collaborating with others. I am looking forward to even more accomplishments next quarter.
