I sometimes feel that I am not discussing Luna enough around here. She is an amazing kid. I am not sure how to explain her in words, but I will try.

She is very much like her father and I find it hard to relate to her the way I relate to Soleil. Soleil is so much more like me. Luna is a jokester first. She loves to be silly and play games with people. And when I say play games, I am not talking Princess Monopoly (although she is ruthless in that game),. I mean that she attacks you where you are weakest. She pokes and pokes at you and then laughs. This is something she does to everyone. I am her favorite victim, but I have given up letting her install my buttons. I am supposed to install hers. We have a joke between us, I tell her "I love you" everyday, at least twice. She then rolls her eyes and says "I KNOW" (like a teenager) and then we have fun with her being silly about it. I have promised to call her everyday when she grows up just to tell her that I love her. She says she won’t answer the phone. I then have promised to text her. She laughs.

She is growing very tall. She can wear some of Soleil’s current clothes. I got her a new dress in size 6 and it fits perfectly, she is only 4.75 years old. She complains every day that she wants to be in kindergarten and she is pretty peeved that she cannot go until September. She wants to go NOW.  As in fling her body to the floor NOW…Of course it just pisses her off when you point out that sort of behavior is not accepted in Kindergarten.

She is also and AMAZING ice skater. She is close to passing the Basic 2 level of the Ice Skating test. I think her test is next week, so we’ll find out then. I promised her that I would look for a new ice skating outfit. We got one for a $1 and she wears it every ice skating day. It’s cute, but getting tight. I looked at some stores and fell over! $200 for a kids’ skating dress! Man, she better be damn good at skating.

I can not express how much I love this child. She frustrates me to no end, but I cannot imagine anything else I would want in the world when she snuggles up to me at night.
