Nova is Six!

Nova is Six!

Nova turned six on the 3rd of March.  As she put it, she got to turn six three times because we had relatives over the weekend before her birthday, went sledding and opened presents from mom, dad, brother and sister on her birthday, and had a sledding party with friends (the last sledding day of the season) the weekend after her birthday.  She thoroughly enjoyed it (though I must say--I think we will do our best to consolidate parties in the future--it was just a little too much excitement for Mom).
   
Nova is a wonderful six-year-old, full of new ideas and capabilities.  She is a maker, and often appears in at breakfast or bedtime in a costume of her own creation (super hero, warrior, puppy dog, etc).  To my delight, she now keeps her room clean with no prompting, having decided she likes it better that way.  After watching an old episode of Carl Sagen's Cosmos she decided to study Astronomy and has been diligently working all week.  We never know quite what to expect from Nova, she is full of unexpected, exuberant, brilliant, surprises.
