I have been blessed this year with parents who provide for my every need. This is the first year in a while that I haven't had to plan and purchase everything for Halloween and I am so thankful (so is my husband who complains about my purchases all the time). Thank you MOMS and DADS for giving so willingly!! I love your children and will do anything for them. School has become a place of testing and strict guidelines that must be followed from "the man" and me being able to do little extras like movie nights, campfires, service projects, dinners, and singing make our days go so much smoother and it let's the kids know that they are loved and cared for. With that being said, I thank each and every one of you for being so supportive and kind!!!!
AR-WOWSER!!!! I am overwhelmed at the number of kids who made their AR goal-20 out of 25 and those that made challenge 17/25. This is amazing. Mrs. Young gave them their second STAR test for AR this week and the reading levels were unbelieveable. We had a huge increase from the first STAR test. She said she was VERY impressed!!! Keep on reading!!! It's just like I said, "The more you read, the better you read!" Keep up the good work. If you encourage your child now, they will have a desire to read on their own eventually-really. I know it's hard work but never let your child give you the excuse, "I don't like to read" POOH, everyone loves a good story, so I don't believe that for a minute. We are a technology world right now and reading has been pushed aside-Let's bring it back-IT'S COOL TO READ AND IT'S COOL TO BE SMART!!!!
Love ya'll!! I'm headed to Boone in the morning to watch AppState kick some tail and then I also get to visit my daughter. I'm putting the school work aside this weekend and cleaning my filthy house. The dust is about an inch thick and I won't even tell you about the bathrooms :)
Have a great time Trick or Treating and be safe (and remember I love Almond Joys and Peppermint Patties-hahaha)
