Makeover

My blog was looking a little dreary.... and I remember changing it to that....a hard time in my life....a valley experience. But I am making my way back into the light! And I think my blog should reflect that!!! So here are my dandelions back!!!!

Kindergarten Round Up

Monday we took Chatham to Kindergarten Round Up. At Clyde Campbell, it really a parent orientation, but you bring your rising Kinder and they get to spend a few hours with the TAs in the Kinder classrooms and on the playground. I have asked and asked what Chatham and the other kids did- but the only info Chatham gives is "the playground has a rocket ship, and you can climb on the hood", "I played fireman with a boy named Zack", and "the teachers name was Miss Pickles". WELL, I'm glad he had fun on the playground but WHAT ABOUT THE CLASSROOMS! and just for the record "Miss Pickles" is actual a teacher assistant named Mrs. Peppers! My kid cracks me up!!!!

All in all, it was very good for us to go- Devin got to see his old elementary school and show me around, I feel much more at ease about letting Chatham go (there were NO tears!!!!), and Chatham is SO excited to start BIG school in the Fall. Now we go back in two weeks for his Dial Screening- EEK!

A Tea Party with Cinderella

The NewArt Ballet School in Newton is putting on Cinderella. The cast put on a tea party for little girls in the area. Harper and some of her closest buds got ticket and went.


The girl who is dancing as Cinderella was SO sweet, and SO good with the girls. They decorated a picture frame and got a picture taken with Cinderella to put in it, they were playing the Disney version of Cinderella while the girls ate cupcakes and had juice and a beautifully decorated table. Then they went into the auditorium and watched a small clip of the actual ballet.

Harper had so much fun!
