You were so proud you remembered to tell mamae at 11pm in the phone.

Vovo and vovo gave you an early birthday gift: A new bike!
You loved it and starting riding (with training wheels) immediately.
You also insisted you go riding with Izzy.

Your friend Samantha at school must have invited you over for a sleep over (even though her mom did not say that).
When we talked about it again, you asked “How am I going to take my bed?”
We all laughed. And I explained you’d sleep in a sleeping bag. You commented you don’t have one.
Maybe time to buy one (though seems a little early for sleep overs).

Yes, I am aware that we are telling you to do things that we don’t always do. (Hopefully Mamae realizes this too). We tell you to go to bed on time, but we stay up late. We tell you to go to the dinner table, but Mamae stays on the computer.

Hopefully you realize we’re trying to teach you what is appropriate.

You’ve been waking up again. Sometimes twice in one night!! Why??

You’ve been waking up a lot recently. In the morning you tell me to go back to my bed so … you can tell vovó that you slept thru the night so you can get chocolate milk for breakfast. Sneaky.

You practiced twice, but still flipped out that night about going on stage. Finally Miss Rachel convinced you to go since you would be sitting next to her.

You had a great time on stage. Sang the songs, got your ‘diploma’, clapped for the other kids. You looked very happy. Hopefully you are over your stage fright.

Wow, your first day of Nitro 2 swimming class and you’re already completed station 1 so you’ll be going to station 2 on Thursday. That’s amazing! Our little mermaid!

Today you finished Nitro 1! I am so proud of you!
You went from being scared to put your face in the water to swimming the length of the pool (length wise), on your back or switching from your back to your front!

You were pretty disappointed when you got a shirt. You were expecting a trophy. Hopefully Mamae made it better by giving you a medal when you got home.

You also asked for the paper that the staff gave me to give to the front desk to show that you finished/graduated Nitro 1. It was laminated so it wasn’t for you to keep. We’re working on a certificate.

Unbelievable! You’re at station 10 in Nitro 1!
