Can you believe it? This child is heading to Junior Kindergarten in the fall? I know this for a fact because I went and registered her this morning. Standing there filling in all of the forms I felt like turning and walking out. I mean, how can she be ready for school when I have only held her for a year and a half? Nevertheless, off to school she will go.
When I walked in to the main office the nice lady behind the counter looked at both girls and asked me what grade I was here to register for. I replied JK.
“Oh, you know that children need to be born in 2009 in order to start JK this fall.”
“Trust me, I know.”
“Oh, so she was born in 2009?”
“Yep. She is just dinky. Probably be the smallest kid in all of JK next year.”
We celebrated Elspeth’s registration with lunch out with Glenn’s mom. The girls adore spending time with their Grammy and she them. Then we got stuff for the upstairs fish tank (but that is another post) before coming home to work on our dragon (yet another post). Then I declared that I was done. My whiplash is improving overall but as you can see I am struggling with limits. I seem to just go and then the moment I stop is when I notice the pain. This past weekend we were at a skating competition (yet another post) and were standing much of the day so Sunday brought quite a bit of pain. I thought that by taking a break this afternoon I might avoid a similar fate tomorrow. WELL…Katrine got a new make up kit from her Grammy today and while I was resting she and Elspeth, as you can see, had some fun.
Gotta love big sisters and their creativity and also little sisters and their agreeability!
