1. Not only is Lauren very sweet, she has a huge Sweet Tooth. Lauren will eat sugar in any form, and the greater the quantity the better. Lauren's Sweet Tooth is adverse to any vegetable with the exception of green beans. It is also adverse to most fruits. Lauren prefers her sugar in the refined form.
2. Lauren is the best big sister in the history of big sisters. She adores her little sister Katie. She is always making faces at Katie, trying to get her to laugh, and likes to show her how to do things. Lauren is very patient with Mark, who thinks he should be first in all things. Since school has been out Lauren and Mark have spending a lot of time playing together, which has resulted in neglect of the Thomas Trains by Mark.
3. Lauren learned to read in first grade and took off with it. She was in the top reading group in her class, and can pretty much read anything. My days of spelling things out to Rick are over.
4. Lauren loves to do arts and crafts. Give this girl paper, crayons or markers, scissors and glue, and you will be amazed what she creates.
5. Lauren is very social. They have opened a new park about a block from our house and the kids beg every night to go to the park. It not like we don't have our own park in the back yard, because we do, but it is missing one important thing, the neighborhood children. Lauren goes to the park, not so much for the exercise, or fun equipment, but rather to see and be seen.
6. Lauren is a fashionista. Lauren LOVES new clothes and finding new ways to combine her clothes to make a cute outfit. This is a girl who understands the value of looking uber cool.
7. Lauren gets to be baptized next year, and is very excited!
8. Lauren like to do tricks with her jump rope. Currently she like to criss-cross her jump rope and jump through it.
9. Lauren LOVES to play computer games. Her favorite sites are Barbie Girl, Bratz, and Build-a-bear. Lauren goes to their sites and plays games creating a cool fantasy world.
10. Lauren thinks all vacations should start and end in California. It really does not matter if it is northern or southern California, just as long as it is California.
11. At the age of seven Lauren believes that she has the coolest, neatest, most wonderful parents in the whole world, and those parents hope she holds that view forever, but we are not optimistic about that in 7-10 years, but we are optimistic that she will hold that view in 15-18 years.
