I went to Olive's parent-teacher conference today. She's doing great! Her reading and writing are progressing well, she's doing well in Spanish, and she's testing at a 2nd grade level in math. Her teachers said she could improve by talking less with her neighbors during work time. We'll have a chat about that. Can't complain, this girl is a smart cookie!

Tonight Olive said, "Mom, Sierra and Sedona are Jewish. And Angelina is Christmas." She meant Christian. Ha! Then she asked what a Christian is, and we got to talk about the differences between Jewish and Christian and Mormon. I told her a lot of it comes down to the scriptures - that Jewish people only believe in the Old Testament, Christian people only believe in the Old and New Testament, and we believe in those and the Book of Mormon and Doctrine & Covenants and in modern day prophets. She seemed to understand it that way. I love that she's interested.
