Yesterday (Tuesday) my daughter had her Honors Day.  She received a trophy for having perfect attendance in 1st grade.  She will also get a medallion for having 100+ A.R. points.  I think she has 148 points right now.  She has really worked hard to build her reading skills.  I am so pleased with her progress in reading!

My son had his Honors Day for pre-k today.  He also received an award for perfect attendance.  Those little pre-k kids are so cute.  They sang the cutest songs for the parents during the assembly.  Bubba was so proud of his little trophy.  Bubba is my son's nickname.

I'm sick.  I came down with a cold yesterday at school.  By the time I got home I was feeling so awful.  I crawled into bed when I got home and went to bed.  This morning when I woke up, I felt so bad.  I really didn't want to go to work (the elementary school).  But Bubba's Honors Day was today, and there was no way that I was not going to get up and get him ready and take him.  So, I took my package of Dayquil to work with me.  I suffered through the day, then came home and went straight to bed.  I read a book to the kids first, then they curled up with me and took a nap with me.  I love it when they nap with me.  When they are asleep they look so young and so sweet.  It just breaks my heart to see how precious and fragile they are in their sleep.  Then they wake up.    LOL LOL

We only have 7 more days of school.  Then I start summer semester at college on June 3.  So, I won't get very many days free of both work and college before I have to go back again.  Oh well.  I am looking forward to summer semester, though. 

Oh, I found out that I have a 4.0 average so far.  WOO HOO!!!!  

Yeah, but I have only gone to college for one semester.  Still, I NEVER had a 4.0 in high school.  I was an awful student in elementary, middle, and high school.  So, I feel really good about my 4.0, even if it is only for one semester so far!!!!!! LOL LOL

I have said so many prayers over the past few months.  Prayers asking Heavenly Father to bless me while I attend college.  Prayers thanking Him for all that He has done for me so far.  I KNOW that I would not be able to do what I am doing without Him.  I work full-time, have a husband and two children, run the household finances, do the household chores, mow the lawn, perform my callings to the best of my ability, and now go to college with a full-load.  There is NO way that I could shoulder all of that without Heavenly Father's love and assistance.   

My daughter is upset.  Ry (that is her nickname) has lost her Wonder Woman Pez dispenser.  She is walking around the house with the saddest doe eyes that I have ever seen.  I keep telling her that it is not lost, it is just misplaced somewhere in this house, and that she will find it.  It is hard to have very much sympathy, considering how messy her room is right now.  She could misplace an elephant in there!!!!

Well, I need to take some more medicine and get myself to bed.
