Charlotte Gray Hess is officially 11 years old. The pandemic was the longest and shortest years of most of our lives and it is hard to believe that we now have a 9 year old and an 11 year old. We just had our first parent meeting about middle school last week, and this fall, Charlotte will be heading to a new school as she begins this next chapter of her life. Before we know it, she’ll be driving, talking to boys and moving off to college. But until then, we continue to love seeing her grow and mature. She’s creative. She’s smart. She’s compassionate. She’s caring. She’s a friend. She’s a leader. She’s musical. She’s artistic. She’s 11. Happy Birthday Charlotte!
