Daily 5

Eli had his a performance this evening it was on the 5 Daily things you should do for reading.

He had his very own line. "Step 3- Read to self. I love to do that!"

He then had to go sit and read to himself for the skit. He was so cute and excited!

Shooting For the Moon!

In February Eli made Citizen of the Month at his new school Palm Pointe. They did something that none of the other schools do. The teacher has to write a paragraph on why the child was picked for COM. This is what Eli's teacher Mrs. Sanguinetti had to say:

Elias is a pleasure to have in my classroom. He is always engaged in his learning and i appreciate Elias's kindness toward others. He is a great role model of a Palm Pointe Rocket!! Great job Elias!

I love it. They attach the paragraph to the award so that we also have that to keep.

GO ELI!!!!

Little Angel

Omar had a great Christmas pagent. He was so excited to see his grandma and grandpa there.

He made super cute faces through the whole thing.

Omar's First Day!

Omar had his first day of school today! He was so excited he was up at 7 and wanted me to get him ready. Problem was he doesn't even start till 12:30!

We got to the school nice and early and he got to wait on the bench for his teachers lot let him in.

He started on a great day. He had a Thanksgiving feast.

I really thought he would cry and beg me to stay. He didn't even look back and tell me bye when he went in. Gotta love my Omie!

Eli's Thanksgiving Pagent

My little Indian got up there with his class and sang his heart out. He cried for 3 days before it. He kept telling me "mommy I don't want to go to school on Monday." Come Monday he had forgot all about it and he did it with out one single tear!

Palm Pointe

It's first day jitters all over again. Today will be his first day of Palm Pointe! He was finally able to sleep in and he was up at 6:20. Wish us luck this is hard for me too. It will be hard to see him go to a big school without his big brother by his side.

First Day of School

Eli's first day of school was not just hard on him. Mommy cried just as much as he did. He started it a week before regular public school.

AJ on the other hand is a whole different story. He started first grade like it was nothing. He according to him loves being in school.

Mommy and Omar celebrated the first day of school with a few mommy friends at Bob Evans. Yummy!
