Here’s a digi page (again) of my cutie patootie (only child for a few more months) girl. I used Lydia’s kit from the Shabby Pickle for this LO.

Today is my last day at work. Yeah! I am really looking forward to staying home for two weeks. The perk of working in education. Although I enjoy all my breaks and so look forward to them, I cannot imagine life without having a career. I think I am more productive when I have a job. I am a lazy ass when I am not on a schedule or with a deadline.

Last night M did her program oh so perfectly. Not only did she memorized her parts she also got extra parts because a few kids were sick or did not want to participate. I guess the teachers found out that M knew everybody’s parts and when asked if she’d like to do this and this and that she said ok. Early in the a.m. she was nervous but by noon she said she was ready for it. We were oh so proud of her {::SMILES}. If it only had her I’d share the video with you all but since others kids are in the video, I rather not.

After the program we stopped at the store and picked up a few things for her party today. For M I also picked up a couple work books. One was a 5-6 yr-old Kindergarten basic and the other one was an accelerated one with extra activities. Well, in less than an hour she went through 27 pages of exercises in the first book. I was ready to be done by page five but she wanted to keep going. We’d do a couple examples together and after that she’d pull the book closer and said, “I got it, I can do it myself now.” It was so cute. She wrote the letters, numbers, read letters and numbers and found missing pieces and did mazes. We did a few of the accelerated one too but we didn’t have crayons handy (I was too lazy to get up) so that’s tonight’s activity. The only thing I need to figure out is how to teach her to read. Right now she can only tell me what the first letter of a word starts with or the sounds of different letters but no reading. She did figure out how to spell dog and cat though but can’t read them. Weird. She already knows how to do basic addition and subtraction.

Have a great weekend and I’ll post more when I get a chance!!! Tomorrow, we’ll be out and about in the city. IF the weather is driveable.
