Alexis Rose

Aaah, Alexis. My little girl. My princess. Sometimes I look at her and I see myself. Other times I think, "where did she come from?" Alexis is a split personality. At times she is meek and shy, quiet around those she doesn't know and so well put together. Other times she is whiney, loud and a good 'ol fashioned brat. She was born a 15 year old teenager and I'm just hoping it doesn't get too much more attitude having than it is now. Wait! Don't get me wrong! I'm in no way putting her down or saying she isn't a good daughter. All I'm saying is that she can tone down the drama queen status for the sake of her mother.

She received an award today. Student of the month! Every award is such as special as the last and she seems to be so full of pride each and every time she gets one. Now, when it comes to school, Alexis doesn't joke around. She is focused. And I mean FOCUSED. She does not need to be told to do her homework. She starts on it as soon as she gets in the car. Literally. If she doesn't understand something, she asks about it. She is definitely a "why" person. Why this and why that? She's so curious about the world around her and she's on a mission to fill that brain up with as much info as possible.

I love her, I love her, I love her! She's a beautiful, smart and sassy little lady that has me wrapped around her pinky.
