Adrian's First Tooth Loss

Adrian finally lost his first tooth yesterday. He has had a really loose tooth for a few weeks now and I have been trying to get it out with no success. He has the permanent tooth that had gotten tired of waiting for the baby one to fall out and so it had already started to grow in behind the baby tooth. Last night we were at the dinner table and Adrian winced and said that he had bit down wrong on his loose tooth. I looked and there was blood pooling in his mouth. I grabbed a napkin and was going to try to pull it out but he insisted on doing it himself. He reached in with the napkin and managed to pull it out. Yea! He put the tooth in the pocket of his prayer pillow and he was excited this morning to see that the tooth fairy had indeed visited him last night.

Adrian has been playing basketball with Upward. He is on a team called the Grizzlies. They are really good. Adrian is having a lot of fun at practice and the games. He was excited to find out that his jersey number is "1". There are a few more games before the season ends.

Report Cards

I haven't been doing a good job of keeping up with the blog. The kids received their second report card of the year a couple of weeks ago.

Adrian received all 3's and S's again which is the highest scores they give in Kindergarten. His teacher commented that "Adrian is excelling in all academic areas. Continue to encourage his love for learning. Keep up the great work!" Adrian also received a green ribbon for Perfect Attendance.

Morgan's grades were:

Reading: 95
Writing: 98
Spelling: 100
Math: 100
Social Studies: 95
Science: 96

Morgan received E's for Excellent in conduct and the special classes. Comments from her teachers were "Puts forth exceptional effort" and "Completes classwork carefully". She received a green ribbon for Perfect Attendance, a blue ribbon for A Honor Roll, and a yellow ribbon for Good Conduct. Morgan also was inducted into the Math Hall of Fame for which she received a red ribbon, a candy bar, and a pencil. She also had her picture taken and it is now mounted on the class window.

I am so proud of my babies! They work so hard!
