Today is Keeley's 8th Birthday!
Keeley is my green eyed beauty. 
She is in second grade and is finally liking school. She loves to read now, and often spends time laying on her bed absorbed in a book. She is a great helper when she wants to be. She often asks me what she can do to help me. I love that! Keeley loves to sing, make up dances, read the scriptures by herself, and evidently she really likes to clean her room - because she spends a lot of time doing it.
Keeley shared her hair in January with Locks of Love and sports a short do. She can't wait until it grows back in, and often tells me how much she misses her long hair. I think that she is wonderful to have donated it to someone else who needed it more than she did.
Keeley is learning to play the piano. She is really, quite good. She loves to sing while she plays.
Here she is at her recital this April.
She played T-ball on the same team this year and loved it. She can hardly wait until she can play machine pitch in the spring and was very upset that they raised the age for playing basketball to third grade and up in the city leagues. There's always next year.
Her team won the best banner contest in the season's opening parade and got to have a pizza party.
Keeley loves Andee. She loves to take over the mothering of her and will spend time playing with her.
Happy Birthday to my sweet Keeley. Mommy and daddy are so proud of the girl you are. You are so special to us. We are so glad that you have decided to follow the example of Jesus Christ, and be baptized.
