It all started around 5:30 this morning when I woke up the girls to get them ready for school. Sydney had a story book character parade at school today. They were to pick a book they liked and dress up like a character in that book. She decided to be Splat the Cat - in this book is a black cat that just started his first year of school.
They wanted simple costumes that wouldn't interfere with class later in the day!
So here is Splat...
and of course her tail....MEEEOOOWW!!!
Casey couldn't be left out and luckily I had another set of kitty ears...
So happy for 5:45 in the morning huh?
Then this afternoon Sydney brought home her VERY FIRST report card.
She is doing so great and her report card reflects that!! There was one thing that made me smile quite a bit - in kindergarten they all take this test at the beginning and end of the year to find out where they stand. We were shown samples of the test and were shocked at the difficulty level on some of the exercises. The children are graded with a "still developing" or a "developed". During our Parent/Teacher conference it was explained to us that so early in the year most kindergartners receive a "Still Developing". Well time for me to brag a little - Sydney received a Developed!!! She is off on the right track for the rest of her years in school.
We couldn't be more proud of our little girl.
