Hayley is toothless!

Last day of school yesterday, and after the school picnic we went to get Roger from work. We are both of the same opinion that if your report card is exceptionally great then you get a "passing present". Hayley is graded on the 1,2,3,4 progress report, 4 being exceeding expectations, 3 meaning meeting expectations, 2 meaning below standards, and 1 not even getting the concept that would then lead you to be below the standard. Hayley recieved one 4 (in math - much to Roger's pleasure), and the majority of 3+ and the rest 3's. She could have her pick of anything, and she chose a two-wheeled scooter that folds up. So she spent the remainder of the day racing around the round-a-bout going about 100 miles an hour. So proud of her!!!!!!

She is spending the extended weekend at her dad's and put up a bit of a fuss to go. That is one of the first times that she has, usually she is glad to see the parent in which she is going to. Plus, let's be honest, who wouldn't like going to her dad's - he lives with his parent's, huge house, lots of yard, big pool, and best of all, she is lavashed all the attention on. Not that she is not here, but there - no other kids, no daycare kids, and no day-to-day running around. Just fun, fun, fun. Well I guess that she warmed up to the idea quickly, after getting into grandma's Miata with the top down, and settled into being at her dad's. She wasn't there an hour and her other top tooth fell out! I can't believe that she has completed a year of kindergarden, has lost 4 teeth now, rides a two-wheeled scooter, has mastered rollerblading, is learning to ride her two wheeler without training wheels, and can read, albiet only a bit. My little girl who has been by my side for six short years is growing up. I think this and then I remember that she still has to sleep with BLUE (her pillow), likes to read books on my lap, and will still hold my hand to cross the street. Glimpses of my little baby.
