Brielle's 12-year-old Interview and Stats

Brielle turned into a young woman this year!  She has been able to go to youth group and do baptisms in the temple (earlier than we'd expected), she got her ears pierced, and went off to sleep away camp (outdoor science camp for school).  She has a sweet disposition and a fun sense of humor.  She is kind and usually willing to help out.

Height: 5ft 5in (97%)

Weight: 102lbs (66%)

Sleeping: about 9.5 hours (9:00pm-6:30am), Bedtime is 8:30, but it takes her a while to get to sleep, and to wake up.  

Hobbies: Reading, Baking, Volleyball, Babysitting. Enjoys and does well in school. Worked hard to apply for an arts charter school program for middle school and was accepted to both the creative writing and integrated arts programs.  Decided to do integrated arts since she is interested in everything.
