Week in Review

It's coming to the end of our school year, and next week will be the final Mom2Mom and Pioneer Club.

This Wednesday, we joined a bunch of our parent friends from Pioneer Club for dinner and margaritas, since it was our last chance to do so this school year.

On Friday, the kindergarten classes showered us moms with love in advance of Mother's Day. We listened to a lovely collection of songs, and then had a treat of muffins.

We also received a special Mother's Day gift - a cookbook filled with a recipe from each student. Violet's recipe is for pasta: The ingredients include "6 sticks and a teaspoon of water."
"Put the sticks in the water. Put them on a plate. Eat them. Serves a family."

(Violet thinks the cookbook is real - when Cora wanted to make cookies, Violet suggested we get out her cookbook, because several classmates had written cookie recipes.)

Here is one of the half-dozen songs Violet's class performed. The whole thing was so sweet, and I'm sad that it's over!

The school recently had a spirit day, and the children were encouraged to wear sports-related clothing. On the same day, parents were invited to attend a Flag Assembly, with the whole school gathering to say the pledge and sing a patriotic song.

One student from each class was invited to lead their class's line and carry a flag. Both Cora and Violet were selected from their classes to carry a flag! I was one proud mama.
