Clara's Update

Clara is also doing the US States study this year with Kylie and Jacob in addition to her basic subjects. She does very well in school and is ahead in almost all her classes.

She is in homeschool choir this year where she is learning to sing and play the recorder.  She is playing Piano for the 2nd year and will have a recital for both coming up in December.



Clara has always had an adventurous spirit which has
given her the courage to try things like vaulting.




She loves to try to keep up with her big brother.
At the fair she goes on the scariest rides her height will allow. 
On the last vacation you could find Clara going down the tallest waterslides
and climbing the tallest rock walls that she could find.



But Clara also has a very gentle side and loves caring for the animals. 
 Right now she is responsible for the family's chickens.  
 She has all the work of feeding and watering them
 and checking their pens for possible predator break ins.



She does a wonderful job at the retirement home each month. 
She has been going as long as she can remember
 and has a very natural way with the residents.

  1. She doesn't look like a little girl anymore. She is becoming quite the young lady. Does she still do vaulting, as well as everything else? Is she enjoying choir? Wish we could be there to buy some eggs from Clara, I know they taste better than what we buy in the store. Good job, Clara, for being a great scholar:)
