KindergARTen

Ava and her classmates had to draw their favorite character from a story they recently read and write what they liked about the character. These bulletin boards are so cute they almost bring me to tears (I know...totally mom-like.)

Translation: I like the fox. He has a pretty tail.
(Is that a pickle with legs, a tail and a dorsal fin???)

Our little artist in action.

So, I was thinking this morning that we should do something fun today and take some pictures to post since we haven't done much lately that is picture worthy. I swear I had barely completed the thought when I opened the bathroom door to see Miss Kati kind of waddling up the hallway toward me wearing a doll dress and a braclet around her little face as a tiara. Ava was BEAMING at her creation!
I can't imagine anyone loving a kitten more than Miss Ava loves her Kati kitty. I'm just not so sure the way she loves her would be considered ethical treatment. Miss Kati seems a bit...disgruntled?

Low Self-Esteem? Never Heard Of Such A Thing...

This morning Miss King was complaining to her dad that her nose would not stop running. He suggested that she go blow it, to which she replied that she would not want to get snot on her beautiful face!

Ava's Inquiring Mind

The other day in the car, out of nowhere,
Ava asked if her dad and I would be older
when she was a grown up.
I love my little thinker.

Brodie Made It!

Congratulations on surviving 6 MONTHS
at the CHP Academy, Officer Mitchell!
Now the REAL fun begins!
