First Thanksgiving presentation

I never realized how much of a momentous year kindergarten is. It's more than just starting a hourney of 12 years of schooling. It's all the firsts. It's almos like a baby's first year of life. Tere are so many first steps. First field trips without mom along, first time eating in a cafeteria, being away all day from mom, first Halloween parade and carnival at school, first Thanksgiving dressing up as Inidans or Pilgrims, making friends that mom hasn't previously been friends with their moms, word that they read, book that they deciphered... and so many others.
After all the school year is only half over. So for now there was the A to Z Thanksgiving. Anna's parts were the first intro lines of the program and then she did the letter v. She did so well!




She colored her vest and did her head band. She was so proud of it and let us know all about it a week ahead of time!.. She did really well at the program.

First Halloween at elementary school

Wow, time zoomed by and Anna is a kindergartner and at her first costume parade in Elementary school! Shes such a good leopard girl!!
This girl is so lucky! She won a goldfish on her first try! She named it Annie. Sadly it died the next day and I had to go get her a new one nad ended up getting two, Annie2 and Lucy. This tale doesnt end though for this month those two brave goldfish got sick and died. So of course off we tromped to get Annie3 and Lucy2. whew!
