First page of the book

I decided I'd do a little project for Madeline. This project Will take many, many years to complete but I got the idea from my aunt Reene who has saved what appears to be every paper my cousins have put their names on. At Patrick's graduation party this last Spring, Reene pulled out all the little books and journals he made throughout his school career, along with awards, photos, art projects, etc. So what I've decided to do is play reporter with Madeline every year around the first day of school and record some of her thoughts and favorite things. I'll compile these into a scrapbook with photos from her first days of school and when it's time for her to graduate from high school we'll have a book to present so all her family and friends can see how much she's grown and changed (or... not.)

Here's our first interview on the first day of kindergarten. Keep in mind that these answers are un-edited and as the years go on the questions will become a little more in depth...

Most favorite summer activity this year? going to Six Flags. I want to go ten times again.

What about school you're excited about? playing on the playground

Most exciting thing to ever happen to you? riding a roller coaster
I want to learn how to... dive like the swimmers on the Olympics and how to do a head-stand and hand-stand and turn in a circle on my head

I want to be...a cheerleader when I grow up.

The scariest thing to me...are huge, huge spiders, 50 feet tall!
