Moms and Muffins
This week was Moms and Muffins at Hailey and Justin's school. It was so cute. Hailey got to read me a little story she had written and illustrated for me. She had to read it in front of all the Moms. She did great. After that they sang a bunch of songs and then came and sat down with us. We got to have lemonade or tea to drink and of course muffins. Justin didn't sing too much last year but this year he was very into it. Oh one little boy got really sad and was sitting with the teacher while everyone was singing. The teacher sits right in front of them and kind of leads the singing etc. Justin saw the little boy crying and got really upset. He looked over at me and he saw me smile and then he smiled. It was so sweet. Afterwards Justin wanted me to go on the playground for a bit so I did. He showed me everything. they both made me necklaces and chocolate roses and the roses were in a little ceramic pot they decorated. They also made placemats. I will miss not having one for Hailey next year and it will be Justin's last one...:(. It's weird I think Hailey going to 1st grade will get to me more then when she went into kindergarten. I think it's because they spend the first 3 years in the same classroom and now she's moving up. I'm floored that she will be in 1st and Justin will be my big kindergarten boy next year. I'm excited and sad all at once. Justin is moving to a new classroom...I requested Hailey's teacher be his teacher next year. And Hailey will get homework next year...Yikes!!! Matthew is still going to be in his classroom so at least it's not a triple whammy...haha. And then I'll get more Moms and Muffins with him...yeah!

Hmmm, I think you need Mandy to take you out for drinks when Hailey switches classrooms! :)
And that's cool that the school will let them have the same teacher - I know some schools are trying to separate kids - esp twins - from having the same teacher so 1) the kid can gain some individuality (in the case of twins) and 2) so the teacher doesn't compare them.
I always felt bad for my brother cause even tho he went to school 6 yrs after me, he had a LOT of the same teachers. He wasn't as academically inclined as I was, and he KEPT hearing "Why can't you be more like your sister?" Boooo.
Well they shouldn't have said that to him. I'm not worried about Hailey's teacher comparing them. She's really good about that. They will make sure they are not in the same class for 1st and 2nd grade. Yeah I know I still can't believe it 1st grade...wow!
