Is it naptime yet???

Oh my gosh. Field trip to the zoo Wednesday. Field trip to the zoo Thursday. Field Day today. I am beyond exhausted. My whole body hurts...

But, hooray, the kids are home now until March 26th WOOHOO!!

Bragging mom ahead, don't read if you don't want to!

4-6th graders at our school win actual place ribbons for Field Day. SB won 5 ribbons. 1st place in the hula hoop event, 2nd place in the baseball throw and the limbo, and 3rd place in the sack race and the 75 yard dash. So cool!

And? The Princess had her Kindergarten screening today. It's a pretty detailed test, including recognition of all upper and lower case letters, some numbers, some prereading skills. Knowledge of full name address, phone number. Being able to SAY the alphabet instead of singing it. Some obscure body parts, shapes and colors, being able to trace and cut on a straight line, sequencing 4 pictures, using 4 full and complete sentences to tell what's happening in a picture, stuff like that. Well, the Princess? She scored a 98 on the screening test! Awesome! Another really smart kiddo!lol!

Oh, I know! In some really fun news, I think I mentioned a while back having some difficulty with a sweepstakes I had won? Well, the company has made it up to me! I received my guitar this week and it was not what I was expecting, so I gave them a call. They spent a day or two looking into it and then called me yesterday to offer me two options. One being another guitar in addition to the one I already had received plus some gift cards to the makeup company to get me to the amount listed in the rules of the sweepstakes. The second option was the cash difference. I immediately chose the cash! So, I have some money coming to help finish my back yard and replace my trees AND I have a decent acoustic guitar for the teenager! We all win! Woohoo!
