Year end party for J's 2nd grade class was so sweet! Some times the parties at NPCA get out of hand & are over the top. And I admit, it is the parents' fault - we just want to do it up right for our kids. Not this party - Mrs. Laitres planned the entire thing, and with the help of the kids, they threw a party for the parents. Our precious kids met us as we walked down the hall, and sat us at our seats. The tables were draped w/ linens, and had center pieces of rose bouquets and candles. Then, something really strange happened.....our kids served us a meal!!!! They were so excited to be doing something for us, instead of the other way around. Thank you, Mrs. Laitres, for a party that all of the parents and kids will always remember!
Speaking of Mrs. L. - Jordan adores her, and is sad that school is over. She told me the other day that Mrs. Laitres is the funnest teacher she has ever had. That is a BIG statement!
I am now the proud mother of a third grader - gasp! J finished the year w/ all A's so she was on A Honor Roll. At NPCA, they only recognize at the end of the year, so you only get one chance. Way To Go, baby girl!
And, we finished the week w/ a play date w/ my nephew, Jake. These guys get along like brother and sister. J is very overprotective of Jake, and they nit at each other like siblings. But not today - they were perfect angels! Okay....that's probably an overstatement. But they were good, and I can see us doing it again :)
