Grrrr - Cute Pup

IN happier news - today is the last day of school.

Wait - that means they’re home all the time. CRAP. But that’s not what I wanted to say…

in HAPPIER news - despite the fact the kids are now home 24/7 for the next three months - the pup got her report card today. Everything was wonderful - but one thing was SUPER FANTASTIC…

The goal for the benchmark reading at the end of 3rd grade is a 110.
The score the Pup started the year with was a mid 2nd grade 51, stage 3 (early reader).
The final score for the year….

(drumroll please)
(thank you)

109!

One Oh Freakin’ Nine!

That puts her at a completed stage five (independent reader), and perfectly in line to go into 4th grade next fall with confidence. WHOOOHOOOO!

Told ya she was awesome!

PS - four days of outside field trips and hey! The pup has COLOR!

…sunburn. whatever. Beggars, choosers….

I don’t like it when one of my boys is hurting. Z (on of the Boy’s bff) is heartbroken today, and all I can do is hug him.

Girls are mean.

Sigh.

(and yes, I’m fully aware this entry will be repeated a thousand times, from both sides of the equation as the kids grow up. It won’t ever get any easier though.)
