Mistaya won a Grade Eight Citizenship award. We are so proud of her. The teacher giving the award said these students are the kind of children you’d want as your own–they are leaders, honest, compassionate, hard working, disciplined and kind. That’s my girl! I get teary just rereading this!
Prospects that may change my academic career path are looking very good at the moment–I am hesitantly excited but I may just be realizing a dream goal of mine in the near future–will say more once things are settled either way.
Tabitha has volunteered to make a cake for her school’s “Cake Walk” on Friday–the only kid I am sure bringing a cake she baked herself. Usually it is the parents who bring store-bought cakes for the event. But not our Tabs–she is a do it yourself wonder child! So, I bought an adorable “Build a Bear” 3D cake pan for her and she will be making a 3D teddy bear cake today, and icing it Friday. We have to start early because she has soccer and dance rehearsal tonight and piano and dance “dress rehearsal” tomorrow night. And then Friday, after school, is the spring fair at her school and she will bring her cake. We are taking little Nem and Artemi to the event–should be fun.
Mist has 4 or more friends coming over after school to study for finals and eat pizza. I can imagine there might be a total of 5 minutes worth of studying going down tonight.
I have Zumba and then I really want to rent a movie or go to one with Peter as I really need the wee relaxing break tonight. Perhaps go to Splice or rent the British film Fishtank. I think renting is in order as we won’t be home until after eight with the Tabs. Peter and I started our Typhoid meds today–fun!
The Pip has a little cold–is hanging with Mom today–didn’t want to go anywhere that required her getting into the van.
And darling Doe-Doe (Fernando the pug) had a play date with his cuz the Fozz this morning after a two week break.
