Kindergarten Karaline

It is hard to believe that our little girl has already completed a quarter of Kindergarten.  It has been so much fun watching her blossom at school.  She loves her teachers and the other kids at school.  She has achieved somewhat of a celebrity status at school.  The kids in my class all greet her each morning, at lunch, and after school.  They all want to give her a hug (even the boys!) and tell her how cute she looks.  I am glad she is having that experience since I know that a lot of the time when we are out, Cody gets the “Oh, he’s so cute” comments.  To which she looks up at me with those big blue eyes and without saying a word, asks “Aren’t I cute?”  It breaks my heart.

Her first report card was an academic success, even if we do need to work on not talking during class.  OOPS!  Guess I am not such a good example of that one!

Karaline was one of only 3 in her class to earn her reading shirt so far this year by knowing all of her letter sounds.  I have to give a lot of credit to Mardie who was an awesome preschool teacher.

Karaline has been very motivated to read, (credit here goes to Mrs. Dayhuff) and she has done an awesome job reading her phonics books, mastering our short vowels.  We are hoping Santa brings us the long vowel set!

Karaline became an official Girl Scout Daisy at the end of October.  Here she is with her Daisy Troop, reciting the Girl Scout promise, and with her proud family!  Thank you to everyone who supported Karaline and her troop by purchasing items in the Fall Opportunity Sale.
