Brielle did a great job making the best of virtual learning but she was ready to go back! After seeing her teacher and classmates on screen for so long she was so excited to meet all of them that she could barely contain herself this morning!
It has been a crazy year and COVID continues to impact everything around us. We never thought that the 2020 school year would be at risk of starting virtual but as the cases counts kept growing over the summer the district made the decision o start the year with virtual learning. Even though Brielle did not get to go to school we still took her first day pictures!
Happy Birthday Brielle! I can’t believe she is already 6 years old! She was pretty excited to add a second hand with her fingers today. Crystal brought in cupcakes to school today and she got to wear her “birthday crown” for the day. For dinner, she requested spaghetti and meatballs and then for dessert Oreo ice cream with chocolate chip cookies! Not a bad choice!
We did something new this year and recorded a video interview with her. We will see if we can make this an annual tradition now to see how her answers change as she grows up!
Each year the Mt. Bethel PTA sponsors a fun run to raise money to support the school. When Brielle heard about this she was excited to signup – her first official running race. As a former runner, I was happy to see and support her enthusiasm for running!
The event offers a 5k, 1Mile, and 1/2 mile (kindergarten) options:
The gun went off and it was a mad sprint! We found some room to run and got into a steady pace. Brielle powered through the last two hundred yards to finish with a time of 4:15.7!
Since they ran the boys and girls together it was hard to tell what place she came in but when they got to the awards they announced that Brielle got 4th place!
On Brielle’s actual birthday we had a quiet dinner at home and then Crystal brought out a few cupcakes she baked and added some whipped cream 🙂
I think she had fun…
Brielle got strong enough to start holding herself up in the Bumbo seat so I snapped a few pics of her!
On January 15th 2014, at 8:12pm we welcomed Brielle Ann Knight to the world! She was 7lbs 5oz and born at Kennestone Hospital.
