Good days

McCayla has reported that she received a 91 on her subtraction timed test today ... her best score yet!!! She is so proud of herself.

And then she informed me that she has moved up a level in reading. She has finally returned to her love for reading, which makes me happy. Mrs. Graybill is a wonderful teacher to get her back into the swing of reading things.

Evan had a wonderful day back to school, bringing home a picture he had colored of Martin Luther King, Jr.

Miss Jenna had a good day in preschool .. the first time she has been back since Christmas break. Her teachers had forgotten what she looked like. I told them that she had to shake her ick before she could return.

So back to school for everyone ... and they had good days.

Someone has lost something...




Evan told us that his tooth was hurting him and normally I am the one who yanks them out. But since I am under the weather, I didn't want to stick my fingers in Evan's mouth, so Daddy got the magic paper towel and yanked a few times.

Evan cried more after he realized it was out as opposed to in reaction to the pain that wasn't even there.

He has grand ideas of what he is going to do with his Tooth Fairy loot.

The Harmonica Playing Shepherd

Evan and Jenna were playing with marbles ALL morning long, which gave me the opportunity to get some work done on the computer. At one point, I dressed Evan up in his shepherd garb, and then he picked up his harmonica.

So without further ado...
