The week of Halloween!

Mia was sick this week and ended up missing both Monday and Tuesday at school.  :(  But when she went back Wednesday she found out she was line leader for the week so she was beyond happy!

School Holiday, Brown Day and the 6th green star in a row!!

Christopher Columbus day was a school holiday so Mia and I took full advantage of an extra day together.  We window shopped, walked around the mall, went to lunch with Ben, colored, had a princess and queen party with some of her favorite lovies and treated ourselves to slushies at sonic.  It was a glorious day!

Today was brown day at school.  Mia wasn't all that happy as "brown is a boy color" but she got over it with this new dress I made her.    She did, however, come home with her sash tied around her waist ninja style - note to self big bow sashes are not school friendly. Today she brought home her 6th green star in a row...I've got to think of something pretty awesome for if she goes 2 weeks with all green stars.  

"A verb is an action word!"

I absolutely love having Mia come home super excited about what she learned that day.  Today's excitement was about "A verb is an action word!", a lesson about the sense of touch and how to spell the color "red" - not to mention that they painted in art class.  

In other news - it actually rained (instead of going around us like it usually does) for a full 3.5 minutes...  LOL
