The smartest girl I know

I met with Gracelyn's teacher today and it was awesome. I knew she was doing okay but I didn't have proof. Her teacher has never not one time sent a piece of paper home with work on it so I was beginning to think what in the world is up. Well today all my suspicions were put away and I found out that Gracelyn is just awesome and doing so well. She is very adamant here at home that school is not necessary all the time so I brought this concern to her teacher and she said that there was no problem at school and that she is very sweet. Well I knew that but it was good to hear anyways. As far as academics go, Gracelyn is right on track. She knew all her letters and sounds. She is starting in a new reading group and is loving math. So YAHOO she is right where she needs to be. I can't ask for more than that. Since her teacher bragged that she can count to 100 we have been hearing that countdown non-stop... UGH, Thanks Mrs. Dawson...

The thing that I am the most proud of is that Gracelyn invited her teacher to church. After all the school talk was over with she told me that she knew we went to church with the principal. (I was keeping that on the down low~been there done that with parents knowing the principal) But she said that Gracelyn asked her to come to church with her and then she found out that Doug went there too. So I think her family might come visit. They recently moved from Dumas and are searching for a church family. I was so proud of my daughter to ask her teacher. When I asked Gracelyn about it she said that she wanted Mrs. Dawson there because she loves her so much. AWWWW... I really love that about Gracelyn.

Aunt Kassie had her tonsils out today :( so she is on the mend at home. They kept pushing her surgery back in the day and that is always sooooo nerve racking. But she had her surgery at 1:00 and was walking through the door of the house at 3:30... that is awesome... YEAH!!!! I knew it would go smoothly. I know she will feel so much better once she heals and is back to her old self. Well not really her old self~ her new self. :) Get well soon Aunt Kassie.

Mason has two teeth and is starting to use those teeth so much.. OWIE! But we are pushing through and making it.

Cannon got a cool new do. Thanks Kami for the awesome haircut. I love it. He looks so handsome. He even has the sticking-up hair in the front that all the cool kids are wearing. I call it the Ator hair-do but you can call it whatever...

Have a great weekend.
