So Proud!!

I'm beaming!!! Can you see it??? I just reviewed Morgan's second term report card, and I am more than proud of our little. I know she was just in Junior Kindergarten, but the words written by her teacher and all of the specialist teachers have sent me over the moon.

Morgan's teacher, Mrs. Benger, wrote a full page report about her, her skill levels, and how how she participates in class. Each of the specialist teachers wrote a few sentences about Morgan and how she did in their class. The one that really got me was written by the Korean teacher. She wrote:

"I thoroughly enjoyed teaching Morgan this year. This delightful young lady was a model student in every way. Always calm and attentive, she was a good influence to the other students. She also took part in all class activities joyfully. I'm very proud of her. Outstanding, Morgan!"

Still smiling here!!!!


Last Day of School

Last day of school for Morgan!!!! We couldn't be any prouder of our little girl. She had a great year and learned so much. I have been very impressed with the classwork and journals she's been bringing home this week. All things she has been working on over the year. Next year she's off to Senior Kindergarten and we know she is going to be GREAT!!! Here are some pics from today:

Daddy's Girl

I'm sure I've mentioned a few times that Molly is a "Daddy's Girl". She knows each Saturday morning that Daddy is home for the day. She latches on to him and doesn't let go again until Monday morning. Here are a couple of pictures of a typical Saturday morning in our home.


Morgan's Year End Party

This is the last week of school for Morgan and on Monday she had her Year End Party!!!! It was a really fun day. We started with a pizza lunch then headed outside for some relay games. After a short break we had free time in the gym and ended with Popsicles. The kids all had a great time. They enjoyed their lunch and treats that the parents brought in. It was so fun to watch the kids during their relay games. They were cheering each other on and had a blast! It's hard to believe the year is over. Our little girl is moving on to Senior Kindergarten in the Fall.

Swimming Star

It is no secret that I am proud of our super swimmer, Morgan.  And today is no exception.  In her PE Swim Lesson today she advanced to the next skill level.  I am thrilled, and so is she!!  Way To Go MORGAN!!!

The President

Seoul is the capital of South Korea and therefore there are tons of government related places we see on a daily basis, on top of the ancient palaces and structures.  I drive by the South Korean President's "Blue House" (their answer to our White House) pretty regularly and Morgan thinks its cool knowing where he lives.  Well yesterday we were in the "Blue House" area and we saw the President's motorcade go by.  How neat??  It was the first time ever seeing it.  Of course we didn't know exactly which car he was in, but cool anyway.   Now Morgan knows where the President lives and has seen his car too!

A Few Things I Learned Today

*Always be prepared!  Common sense really, I know.  But just as I began to get comfortable with Molly in her potty training phase, I was caught unprepared.  I haven't changed a "messy" diaper in weeks...until today.  And go figure, today was the day we left the house without any wipes.  Yikes!!

*There are child safety locks on car doors for a reason, and today we discovered why.  Sure enough I was driving and noticed a red light on my dashboard.  The "door adjar" light.  I look back and Molly's door is WIDE open.  People were honking at me and swerving around me.  Of course no one would let me over so I pull to the side and get it closed.  I finally made it over and NOW the child safety locks are switched ON!
