And now we have a teenager in our house! It's been a year and, oh, how Olivia has grown! Olive has really come out of her shell this year. She has had blue, red, and purple hair. She has cut it off and grown it out (a little). She still loves to read and logged an impressive 111 books during the 22-23 school year. She loves music, loves swinging, and loves being outside!
Olive's favorite cake: lemon with raspberry frosting! In an outfit totally her own!

During the summer of 2022, Olive went to "learn to row" camp. There were three "Olivia's" in her 8-person boat, and that is when she decided that she wanted to go by Olive, the nickname Leo and Jason had been calling her since about 2020. Olive has completed a year of rowing and still loves it enough to erg without being told to do it! She is looking forward to summer rowing practice.
Olive also just completed her 7th grade year at Wake Young Women's Leadership Academy (WYWLA), and had a great year--academically (all A's; inducted into National Junior Honor Society; received a county award in PTA Reflections Art Program) and socially (she loves riding the bus morning and afternoon to hang with friends and goes to all the block parties and school dances).
In addition to rowing, where Olive has been lately been rowing in the stroke seat of a 4 or an 8, Olive also goes to sewing class once a week. She sewed a dress, a bag, and many accessories this year. Olive learned to crochet more this year and is steadily creating with yarn, too!
Here are some highlights from the year!
