April First Update

APRIL FIRST!

April First was a big day... not only was it the Oratory Recital... but it was Emma's birthday!

SIX YEARS OLD!!!
I can't believe I have gone from this...

to this...

AHHHHHH!

Before school on this particular morning, Mr. Lussi (see article here) asked to have breakfast with Emma for her birthday. So we got to go to Chick-fil-a and eat with him. What a special treat!

Then, Emma did wonderful... er uh.... got through... her poem. We were so proud of her though. She was so nervous and they made the Kindergartners go first!! I was so nervous for her, and although I have seen her recite it better, she got up there on stage and went through it flawlessly. So proud!

(Please note the blackbird in the nest on her head)

After that I got to stay for lunch and have cupcakes with her and her class!

Can I just say how much I love PCA? Before they ate lunch Mrs. Carter had Emma come to the front of the room and had her pick two students to pray for her. They came up and said a little prayer for Emma on her special day.

Then it was on to the party!
We had a spa party!

We also had some of the girls spent the night!

It was a fun...er uh... interesting... uh... exhausting day!
