Eva Rocks!

{fb} Ok, I have to sing the praises of my daughter Eva - she ROCKS!! She's in a reading fluency program for the summer. They tested her to see what level she's at (so we can find the appropriate books) and she's at a 3rd grade level!!! Whoo hooo!! Not bad for a soon to be 1st grader!! I'm so proud of her! (now we just need to work on math, lol)

You, Gerald Grogan, Laura Steidtman, Mandy Morano Pianga and 4 others like this.

Smart! So fun! People are either Math/Science or English/History in strength but sounds like she is a pro and is going to do great! Good job mom!

Keep on reading Eva! You've made great strides in kindergarten and will be successful in 1st grade. :)

TRIPLETS

"SO MANY GOOD THINGS COME IN THREES, LIKE MUSKETEERS AND ABC'S. BUT TRIPLETS ARE THE BEST OF ALL FROM LITTLE ONES TO THOSE QUITE TALL. AND FROM THE TIME SUCH LIFE BEGINS, IT'S EXTRA LAUGHTER, TRIPLE GRINS. WITH JOYS AND MISCHIEFS MULTIPLIED AND TWO DEFENDERS BY EACH SIDE. SO MUCH ALIKE, FOREVER LINKED, AND YET THEY'RE ALSO QUITE DISTINCT. THEY SHARE A BIRTHDAY AND A NAME, BUT MOODS AND TEMPERS AREN'T THE SAME. FROM DAYS OF YOUTH TILL LIFE IS DONE, IT'S ONE FOR ALL AND ALL FOR ONE. GOD MADE US NOVEL AND PRECISE, BUT SPECIAL FOLKS~~~HE MADE THEM THRICE!!!

JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT I WASN"T LOOKING

(Written by a former child) A message every adult should read, because children are watching you and doing as you do, not as you say. When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you hang my first painting on the refrigerator, and I immediately wanted to paint another one. When you thought I wasn't looking I saw you feed a stray cat, and I learned that it was good to be kind to animals. When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you make my favorite cake for me and I learned that the little things can be the special things in life. When you thought I wasn't looking I heard you say a prayer, and I knew there is a God I could always talk to and I learned to trust in God. When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you make a meal and take it to a friend who was sick, and I learned that we all have to help take care of each other. When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you give of your time and money to help people who had nothing and I learned that those who have something should give to those who don't. When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw you take care of our house and everyone in it and I learned we have to take care of what we are given. When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw how you handled your responsibilities, even when you didn't feel good and I learned that I would have to be responsible when I grow up. When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw tears come from your eyes and I learned that sometimes things hurt, but it's all right to cry. When you thought I wasn't looking, I saw that you cared and I wanted to be everything that I could be. When you thought I wasn't looking, I learned most of life's lessons that I needed to know to be a good and productive person when I grow up. When you thought I wasn't looking, I looked at you and wanted to say, "Thanks for all the things I saw when you thought I wasn't looking."
