Rachel.......

 Rachel.....what to say about her..... She has been in one of those awkward hard to grow up years.  12 going on 13 is a hard age on the parent and the child.  She has been playing the flute this year in the band.  She endures it.  She has had many ups and downs with friends.....I am hoping that she can learn the qualities of a "true" friend and then find those and become one too. 

She has been going to physical therapy for her leg for the past 4 months with no change.  We are hoping for a breakthrough. 

 She loves going to the rec center with friends and is thrilled when she is called to babysit for someone.  She likes hanging out with cousins even though most her age are boys. 
She could improve in the "attitude" department which I hope happens really soon!!!
