2008 - About US - CIERRA



Determined, Forward-thinking, Intelligent, Inquisitive, Kind-hearted:


Ms. Cierra




Cierra is 10! She is in the 5th grade. This is insane to me. WOW. I remember chasing her around and calling her "punkin" and reminding her not to eat watermelon so fast, let me be the Mom, or stop teasing Brennen - ( I am still saying these things). Cierra is a natural at writing stories and literary assignments. She loves to read, play sports- listen, dance, & sing to music. She is a great PERSUADER, and sees things certain ways, trying to convince you her way works best. She is very compassionate and kind. She is fiercely loyal. She loves to be prepared and on time (definitely from her FATHER). She came home today with a "perfect attendance" award from her school, which made her Daddy very proud.


Prime example: Cierra was given an assignment -about the middle of Oct.- to read a book and write about it in newspaper form. It is due Nov. 22nd. She turned it in completely finished 3 days ago. (it is now Oct. 29th). She definitely did not get that from her Mom.


She seriously is my superior in so many ways. I am always getting a dose of Humble Pie when it comes to this business of life and Cierra's mastery of it. I seriously wonder if I am the Mom in this relationship!?

She enjoys her friends and being a part of sports teams and class activities. Cierra played softball and soccer this year. She can definitely "hang" with the boys when it comes to soccer. Aggressive and competitive. She loves to play. Cierra's softball team won the city tournament this year. They made the ultimate come back. Cierra was the catcher on the team, full gear and everything! Her soccer team took second in the league this year, and she scored a goal. Cierra is a big help at home and we are so grateful for the blessing she is to our lives. Always teaching us and keeping us on our toes!! She is a great big sister, and takes good care of Bren, Matthew, and our Dog: Chubbers.

She is FULL of life, and LOVES life so innocently, and hugely.


You have to see it to understand it.


She is an absolute LIGHT to all those around her! Unwavering.
