You missed school yesterday and today, for the first time since classes began in August. You have a fever but pretty much no other symptons, so we don’t know what’s causing it. Doctor tested you for strep but it was negative. You were fever free most of the time today, but it started again in the evening…

New (temp) bus
You have a new (temporary) bus (I talked to Mr O and he said the normal bus has transmission problems). You told me you wanted me to drive you to school because you didn’t want to go on the bus. I asked you many times why and you finally said because you didn’t like the color of the seats (gray instead of black?).
Mamae convinced you it was ok.
Ronnie said he didn’t like the new bus either. Nor did Mr O.

First Sleepover – almost
You went to your friend Isadora’s house for your first sleepover. Since both Daddy and Eric are sick, tia Erica and I thought it could be a good way to get you out of the house. You carefully agreed to it, asked a bunch of questions, about when you were coming back home and where you were going to sleep. Then you started liking the idea and we went to pack your Little Mermaid pijamas, some books (including Charlie and Lola’s I slightly wanna go home), a stuffed animal (reindeer your cousin João got you) and off we went. You arrived pretty happy, played with Izzy and then we said goodbye (Eric and I were going to the grocery store and then home). Everything went fine until I got a call about midnight, tia Erica said you were asking to sleep in your own bed. I talked to you on the phone and you said you were scared and wanted to sleep in your room/bed. So that was the end of your first sleepover, you got home about 12:35 am.

Lice
You had lice for the first (and hopefully last) time. We saw it in your hair after you had been complaining of itching. Daddy went to the pharmacy and got lice shampoo right away, and a thin comb. I cut your hair quite a bit, it was very long, waist-length, and I got it cut to shoulder-length. You cried at first thinking I was going to cut it short like a boy, then you calmed down when you saw that it was still “girl’s hair”.

These are old mistakes
You don’t say these any more, but we had to register: espássaro instead of espaço, boboteca instead of biblioteca.

Tooth Fairy gives Chocolate Coins
Your school mate Haven lost a tooth today.
I asked what happens. You said he will put it under his pillow and the tooth fairy will give him money.
I asked you why the tooth fairy gives money.
You said that the tooth fairy gives a coin with chocolate inside. -
First Art Show
Your after school had an Art Show, and you had 3 pictures in the exhibit. An apple, a pumpkin and a cat (looks a lot like Gato). They are all really good, the apple is great and my favorite. They are a mix of watercolor and pastel. Another artist in the making to continue the family tradition? You have been saying often you want to be a Book Illustrator!

4th name
You were arguing with us that you have a 4th and last name: Melon/watermelon. You said your friend Samantha from Bluebonnet told you that it was your name. You kept arguing that you want to change it for real, no pretending.

Bad table mate
You told us you didn’t want to go to kindergarten anymore, just rainbow station. After asking you why a bunch of times, you spit out a huge story (need to confirm all the facts with Ms. Biedermann) about your classmate who sits at your table did a lot of bad things: hit you, pushed you, kicked you, made fun of you. You said Ms. Biedermann put her in a timeout and she came back too soon. She was so bad Ms. Biedermann had to call her mom.
