Report Cards

I think that some parents dread this time of the school year, but luckily I have kids that love school and do very well.

Brett did outstanding! He got all 4's, which is like straight A's. The third grade took the Iowa Test and Brett got a certificate that states he is in the top 10 nationally in Reading, Mathematics, Social Studies, Language, and Science! I am so proud of him, he works so hard and loves being at school. Next year he will be in the ALPS class, which is an accelerated program. I hope that I can keep up, sometimes I think he is smarter than I am.

Kyzleigh had a great report also. She got all 3's and 4's. She is a good reader and is above grade level. The only thing she needs to work on, is not being so shy. Way to go Kyz!!!

Kyra's report card was almost identical to Kyzleighs. She also got all 3's and 4's. She too is a great reader, and she is above grade level too. The only difference is that Kyra is not shy at all. Those who know the real Kyra will agree.

Jace isn't in school yet, but he comes with me every Tuesday when I help in the girls class. He likes to do the puzzles that the teacher has. He is looking forward to Kindergarten starting next school year.

This year we decided that since we have 3 kids birthdays in March and my sister Shauntel has a little one in March too, we would combine the birthdays. It was a great idea! We had a carnival, with a bouncy obstacle course. The kids had so much fun! I don't know what I was thinking, but I decided to do everything in one day. Meaning, we had a family party and a friend party all in the same day. I'm not sure I would recommend doing that, I am so tired!
