Caroline's having a great 9th birthday! She shared some pizza w/ the neighborhood friends last night at the pool and had a sleepover w/ Meghan. Meg was the first to sing "Happy Birthday" at midnight! Tate hid her presents in the house this morning and the search was fun. Today she enjoyed lunch and a mani/pedi with her friend, Emily. Granna's on her way for a Justice shop and then we're heading over to Kran's for a cookout.

Happy Birthday, Sweet Caroline! We love, love, love you and are so very proud of you!
Your biggest fans,
Mom, Daddy and Tate

Caroline made Chorus! Hallelujah!

It's hard to believe this school year's almost over. Tate wrapped up preschool on Thursday and has moved to Kran's for the week! (So he thinks!!) Caroline has enjoyed the third grade. It has been her most challenging year thus far, not only academically, but emotionally. It's hard being a girl--enough said! There are a lot of end-of-the-year activities this week at school. She's excited about the talent show and her ST is hosting an icecream party on Tuesday! Yum! We're all looking forward to summer "break." It's not a break by a long shot, but it's less hectic, and I can't wait to spend time with them this summer!

I totally forgot Caroline's appt. with her Ortho. last week. Not sure how I did that--I had it written down and confirmed. Just a lot going on these last few weeks of school. Ok, my punishment is a work in appt. in Duluth. Not just Duluth-- but a drive to McDonough to pick Caroline up from VBS THEN drive to Duluth. God help me! Lesson learned.

Honor Chorus

Caroline's trying out for Chours this morning. She has practiced America and Pocket Full of Sunshine a hundred times! I'm so proud of her for trying! Good luck, Caroline!!

Waiting on a date...

I'm waiting to hear from Dr. Devito's office with a date for Caroline's expansion this summer. I don't know if I want it at the beginning or end of summer?? I was thinking the beginning because the pool's not really warm until June/July but with this flu scare I'm not sure I want her anywhere near a hospital. Need to plan our family vaca, etc. Oh, to be at their mercy. I am thankful we're not traveling to San Antonio. I'd be a nervous wreck flying out there w/ Caroline...flu or no flu.
