Lately

Lately the blog seems to all be about Ainsley... this was her cute self this morning..

This week she graduated from the DARE program...

I was surprised it was such a big thing... the mayor came and gave a pretty awesome speech and then stayed to congratulate each of the 5th graders. He would be the one that looks ready to punch Ainsley out!

And the news on Walker... this would be the words of the day... lovely.

He received 2 red behavior cards at school... one more and he would have had to call home and stay after school 30 minutes... say what??  (Poor kiddos are doomed with me being at school all the time... they can't get away with anything!)

I found out while at school... had a long embarrassing conversation with his teacher all the while apologizing  profusely. Then marched his little self home for a chat.. made him write a letter of apology (hence the words on the kitchen board) and then we headed back to school to deliver note. Luckily we ran into her on the way out the door and he apologized face to face. On the walk home I told him how proud of him I was for apologizing... it's hard to do when you are in the wrong but a good thing to do... hopefully a good and lasting lesson for the day?? Oh my... the stuff of life... it is definitely an adventurous one!
