My girls went back to school on Monday--I've lost the cord to my camcorder and my camera went buzzerk so that explains why there haven't been any photos lately---awwwe---anyways they looked adorable you're just going to have to trust me. That morning we had a yummy big breakfast and we dropped them off, no tears . When we get to school we are bombarded by praise and admiration for our brilliant daughter. First her old teacher kept asking us if we had seen her scores, and then her new teacher, and then the principal and administrator started freaking out and talking about how they want to award her and have a banquet in her honor. . . I kind of got lost because I had no idea what everyone was talking about so I just smiled and nodded and let Tim do the talking, then later I asked him what all the fuss was about and he explained they were talking about her AIMS test she had taken before summer break that she had scored perfect scores on majority of the tests--No surprise to me she is my daughter after all j/k. Anyways the way everyone was freaking out over it made me kinda of wonder how much they were getting paid and profiting over my daughter's test scores to want to throw her a party lol, but I'm always in for a party, so I guess it's ok this time. Personally I do not feel test ever show true intelligence, and it's unfortunate our nation focuses so much on the tests and not on education and learning--such is life we always have to measure this and that so we can boast about how smarter or better we are than the other guy.
Anyways I love Kylee's teacher and she's pregnant so that makes me love her even more. I'm just so happy to have my girls in a tiny little school sheltered from the crazy world at least for a little while. Oh and I bet Kiora is happy that it's normal here to get married young and have a big family, so when I go to school to volunteer they won't introduce me as her older sister--yep happened twice at two different schools, poor thing. It makes me sad no one ever believes that she is mine : ( I guess it doesn't help that I'm the runt of the family and at just 10 years old she almost towers over me, and we wear the same size clothes and shoes oh and she's Blonde. Oh well //// yeah for back to school.
