So I am going to be a proud mama for a moment… Our E is one of the children that won the Carmel Youth Art Award. Isn’t that cool? His teacher submitted the picture he painted and it was entered into the art competition and won an award. We are so excited. Our E doesn’t quite get it yet that he won a contest but I think he will when we go to the ceremony and he gets to accept his award.
K is taking her STAR test at school this week. I hate those tests, it puts so much pressure on the kids. I realize it’s a way for them to gage where the students are at academically but I wish there were a better way. It’s like the SAT’s for third graders… She seems okay but is worried that she won’t do well. We keep telling her that as long as she does her best, it will be fine.
As I write this I am listening to H sing songs in his bed, it is 9:45pm. I tucked him in at 8:15pm. E fell asleep over an hour ago…what is going on with him. He’s been up late everynight, we’ve tried sitting with him, singing with him but nothing works…and he’s getting up at the same time he used to every morning with less sleep. What gives?
hi there! thanks for sending the new blog. great to hear from you and catch up on all your latest. congratulations to E! we are proud of him, too!
