Catching Up - Rachel

The look on the girls' faces is natural for Rachel - posed by the other two. Rachel just gets excited about life. She has funny stories every day and wakes up happy and talkative. She has a grateful heart and often says thanks for things like laundry and dinner. She couldn't wait for the first snowfall of the season!

Rachel has been seen sporting scarves lately. She is sooooo busy with AP classes at school and being a yearbook editor. She got an awesome ACT score so we receive many pieces of college mail daily trying to recruit her. She says her heart belongs to BYU and has no back up plan. (Sorry Blair)
This girl LOVES the trumpet!! She is working on a trio of Bugler's Holiday (for all you music experts out there) and it is amazing. I don't know how she moves her fingers that fast. She also is a talented piano player.
Luckily, Rachel isn't a sickly child. We went to the dermatologist a few days ago to have a few small injections in her foot. Not a big deal. Rachel didn't even want to sit in the green-colored chair though, then started to feel light-headed as we were leaving. She is taller than I am and looked quite pale, so I quickly had her sit on the floor. The 6 nurses immediately gathered to observe her, give juice, feel her forehead and make sure she was okay. She found the humor in all of that and has enjoyed sharing her story. What an incredible young woman!!!
