Cora had her final violin/orchestra class of the school year Tuesday, and she earned her medal for learning all the songs required for a beginning violinist.
She was thrilled.
And she is now thrilled to pack away that violin forever, except for the end-of-year school concerts.
It's OK, Cora. You are good at so many things. You don't have to do it all.
Later on Tuesday, we helped pack lunches for the homeless and took them to the shelter, where we met up with Mom2Mom friends to serve dinner.
Lucas and Cora filled the bags with chips and oranges, while Violet and Liana were busy making sandwiches.
On Wednesday, we went to the closing ceremony for Pioneer Clubs. I probably say this annually, but I still can't believe how fast each year goes by. Violet had a fabulous class and teacher - we love you, Shannon!
And, Cora is now finished as a Pathfinder, and will move on to the Trailblazers 5th and 6th grade group. Those are the BIG kids. I don't even know how this happened. She was
two when she started as a Skipper!
Sara, Tony and the girls finished up their exciting weeks with Flat Violet, and sent her back to Mrs. Hawthorne's class.
Sara, a former teacher, is amazing, and Flat Violet had the best vacation ever. She sent a whole package of photos and keepsakes, and a long letter detailing the fun of a Diamondbacks game, Sedona and the state capitol.
I was lucky enough to be helping in class when Mrs. Hawthorne opened up the package.
On Thursday, I took my girls and Sophia to a special event at the library, where an artist was guiding the children in drawing characters from Diary of a Wimpy Kid.
Violet had a blast; she loves drawing, especially with guidance. She'll look up youtube videos on drawing and comes out with some amazing creations.
