LAST DAY OF FOURTH GRADE & OFFICIALLY A FIFTH GRADER.

So I'm in the final stages of getting over the worst summer cold ever! Being out in the heat all day strawberry picking, and then coming home to a cold air-conditioned house did not help! It was bound to happen since I hadn't gotten sick in like three years. Gotta build up that immune system. Anyway, while in recovery with my equate mucous multi-symptom cough syrup, the best part of today is that Chelsea is now officially a fifth grader! She passed with flying colors, and although she's excited she sure is going to miss her friends, and teachers. She truly loves school, and so far is not one of those kids who says, "I hate school." I have a feeling she's going to go through a little bit of withdrawal. Luckily her teacher sent home a myriad of summer packets to keep their summer busy with work. I have a feeling that she'll only do a few though. She has had a very good year, and I had a good year with her. Not one incident, or disappointment when it came to the school, or with her teacher. 

Ms. Kelly is your ideal 4th grade dream teacher. I wish I had a thousand bucks to give her, because she contributes so much to the kids. She was very thorough when it came to sending announcements via email every Friday. I can see why Chelsea will miss Ms. Kelly, because I will miss her too! 

Lexie still has another three days of school (darn those snow days!) Luckily their only half days, because I'll tell you waking up at 5:30 every morning for seminary really took a toll on her. She still has a lot of catching up to do on her sleep, but somehow managed to keep her GPA above a 3.75. I'm very proud of both my girls for their auspicious achievements, and hope that they'll keep it up in all the years to come. 

Peace out, and a happy wednesday to you!
