Fall conferences

Parent/Teacher meetings
Har and I met with both Wyatt and Genevieve's teachers today.
Both kids are doing great! Wyatt has some trouble wanting to get library books out and reading them when he is needing to attend to other tasks. We'll have to address that with the young man but I'm happy to hear that he enjoys reading that much and is in the highest reading group in his grade.
I didn't take any photos of Wyatt's work but did get some of G'vieve's.

Kindergarten art
Self portrait of sorts.
Defining Fall. "Falling leaves and ripe apples" Sounds about right to me!
Large leaf print.
The classroom. Hasn't changed much hey girls?
We found Genevieve's name with those on the back side of the line hanging across the room.
She came home on Friday with her Thanksgiving crafts. The turkey feathers have dots ranging from 1 to 10 on each one. Genevieve glued them in order to make the strutting turkey's tail. Her turkey headband was so cute with long accordion pleated legs draping down.

I hope to post an official Thanksgiving message because I'm looking forward to taking pictures of the 17 of us that will be together this year. We have so many blessings to be thankful for!

Tis the season
The mall is ready for the hordes. I don't know that we are going to be among them. Need to make a list and check it twice. Not sure if I can get it all together to hit the midnight sales or the 4 a.m. sales. I think I'll wait for the kids to be back in school next week and try to enjoy the holiday season at a little bit slower pace.
"Real Joy"? I'm pretty sure I won't find it at Sears. But I will be visiting there. The third floor is beckoning. The Christmas decorations are up there ;o)
