We are so lucky!

Halloween is almost here, and I can't wait...so Cambree will stop talking about it!  I can't blame her however, I love it too!  This weekend we finally got to carve their pumpkins.  We chose the Monster Inc stars...Sully & Mike!  The girls carved their small pumpkins all by themselves.  It was a fun family event that took us 2 hours!

Earlier in the week was fun too!  We had parent teacher conferences and found out all the bad things the girls do at school!  Ok so nothing bad and tons of good!
Makyah's teacher reports she is a great student.  She excels in Reading and although does well, does not have as much confidence in Math.  Her favorite thing at school is learning cursive.  She is a very kind and helpful friend , and knows when to step in to help other.  She has lots of friends and is well liked and of course always follows the rules!  She still tends to memorize random numbers, dates and names! She is just like her dad, and I am in awe of them both. What more can we ask for!  Her teacher also asked us what goal we have for Makyah and I really could not think of one, except maybe a little more confidence in herself.  I hope her school career is always going to be this easy;)
Cambree's teacher reports that she is a great student and beginning reader and is still very quiet.  However, she did say that she has been raising her hand more often.  She never gets in trouble, and will not even tattle on others.  She likes reading, is so-so about writing and math and loves art, gym, music and lunch! We are really happy that she seems to enjoy school this year.  Cambree can't say enough good things about her teacher and has worked all her friendship problems out.  Howev,er she still thinks everyone is good (even though they are mean)  This week she asked me if, "friendships ever dies".  I mean where does this girl get this stuff.  Last week she wanted to know what body part god made first on the first person he created.  This girl thinks way to much just like her mother.  You have to love her:)  She was also nominated by her teacher this week for the "splash award".  This means a teacher saw her doing something kind.  I asked her what it was, and she said, "Mom I do everything that is kind".  Again, what more can I ask for. 
I feel blessed, we are soooo lucky... we must be doing something right!
Until next week...have a good one!
