It's great to be almost 8.
This is Miriam's big week.
A big special birthday has fallen into a pretty exciting week in it's own right.
M is the star student at school this week. Because it's end of term it's early out everyday!
That's not a bad start, but that's not all......
Our last pre-baptism FHE was on testimony.
The lesson itself was not stellar. Soren was in bad form, and we are all sick with awful chest colds (Miriam being the worst unfortunately). We did get through the lesson..not the grand teaching moment I was hoping for but maybe something will stick in their little brains??
But....we did make some yummy breadsticks with honey butter.
Miriam and two friends spent last weekend choreographing a dance routine for their class talent show Monday morning. M's teacher reported that she was blown away with what the girls had come up with. Miriam had a blast (even with the hacking cough)
That afternoon there were surprises in the mail from G'ma Cheryl.
Groundhog Day books for all and a special gift for Miriam.
She colored it that night and begged me to get it washed and ready for her pillow.
Tonight was SEP's. Glowing reports from her teacher, and Miriam showed me all the cute class projects they have been working on. The art entries from the school art show are hanging around the school halls. So fun to peruse the creativity!
The icing on the cake!
With sprinkles!
Even more sprinkles!!
(That's M on the left in another student's entry)
More to come....it's only Tuesday.
