Last day

Today was Christians's last day of school. I knew it was going I tough on both of us. She has cried every morning on the way to school about how much she was going to miss Mrs. Morton. Last night I had a vision of her coming out to bus duty (where I am in the afternoons) and just sobbing. I thought we were in the clear but it only took a second for the tears to come. She was truly upset about not seeing Mrs. Morton everyday. Then as I was walking back to my room, people said there were about 4 other kids from her class crying too. Just shows what a wonderful teacher and person Mrs. Morton is. She really does love her students just like her own. It sure was hard to not let myself cry just as hard as she was- but because I will miss seeing Christian everyday:(:(
On the way home, when it was just us, Christian cried more than I can ever remember her crying. Every now and then she would say, between her sobs, "I just am going to miss Mrs. Morton so much. I just want her to be right next to me. She really is the best teacher ever."
 Then she said, "Mom, when we get out of the car I want to give you a really big hug because I think it will make me feel better."
She did calm down and begin to feel a little better once we got Emory and got ice cream.

Emory/ET

Last night bryan and I were laughing at how little Emory was and what a head full of hair she has. How her hair makes her look so much older than she is really. Than bryan said it reminded him of ET when he had the wig on. I started laughing then pulled it up!!




Hahahahaha!!!
Of course we don't think Emory looks at all like ET, but we laughed forever:):)

Conversations with Christian

One thing I am really going to miss next year is my drive to and from school with CC. On the way home, we usually talk about what happened at school- who signed the book, how far she went on the monkey bars, what they painted, etc. Or she plays teacher and I answer questions. or she falls asleep!! on the way to school we talk about many different things- she asks a lot of questions about God (seems to be on her mind most mornings!).

Today we talked about who she was going to marry and what her children's name will be. She is going to marry Sully Blake, her 3k crush, and have three kids. 2 girls and a boy- Christian McKenney Blake, Mary Marchman Blake, and Ethan Parke Blake! She came up with them on her own and put a lot of thought into her kids names!
On the home today, we played a game where she said words that rhymed, then we would sing "that rhymes, that rhymes" or "no way, no way" if they didn't rhyme.
One that stuck out was one with one real word and one nonsense word(so she says)------"itch, bitch"- "THAT RHYMES, THAT RHYMES"!!!:):)

My little guppy

Christian had "try outs" today to be on the little guppy swim team and she made it!!! Yay! To be completely honest all they had to do was swim half way across the pool and be able to stay afloat. But regardless- she is a little guppy and so excited!!!!










Congrats Sophia and Christian!!!
