During 1st grade she decided that she wanted to sell cookies to raise money for Make-a-Wish Foundation. This summer she decided she wanted to do it again. The girl has sold 19 dozen cookies to family, friends and neighbors. She charges $4 dozen - sugar cookies, chocolate chip and peanut butter. She contacted everyone herself with homemade flyers, emails and phone calls. She would keep selling if I'd let her, but I told her she has to catch up on all her orders first! She is now at the point where she can make the cookies all herself (thank the heavens above), and I just get them in and out of the oven. Although I feel like we have cookies coming out of our ying-yangs, I am very proud of her.
In May she had her first piano recital. She played "You'll Be in My Heart" from Tarzan. She's coming along very nicely...now we just need to buy a piano! The keyboard ain't cuttin' it anymore!
She also had her 3rd gymnastics recital. It was a great night!
Taylor can't wait for 4th grade! She's growing up way too fast for me, but I love every minute.

Adorable! We would expect nothing less of Taylor. And when she owns her own high profile business that serves others and gives back, we'll be glad to say. . . she never sold us any bleepin' cookies! Well I guess they wouldn't make it to far in the mail. Wish we lived closer!
So good to see you guys! Post your pic of us. I never got to to see it or email me a copy.
Oh, and I LOVE the kids pictures! Hope you are feeling good.
I would like to place an order for cookies if she is willing. I would like 2 dozen please.
