Piper has had a busy week (last week).  We went to an open house for the school she will attend next year.  It was nice to meet the Kindergarten teachers and see the classrooms.  They do alot of fun things so Piper should have a blast.  Then on Friday Piper’s school had their Spring Concert where all the classes perform.  Her class sang a song, counted to 20 in Japanese and recited a Bible verse.  Then all the classes sang a song together at the end.  It was really sweet.  Hopefully we will have some video of that next week.   Piper’s new schoolThe Pre-K Class The whole school!  (2yr olds – 5 yr olds) Piper’s good friend Chloe

The kids took care of their mom today.  They got me flowers, took me to breakfast and made a delicious chocolate cake (not from a box either).  Piper couldn’t wait for it to be Mother’s Day.  She made a special gift at school which was a flower pot that she decorated.  The flowers are actually pens.  The gift came with a special card also.  It was a wonderful day spent with great kids and a great hubby!   The gift and card Piper made at school At breakfast.  Piper also drew me a picture

Piper’s teacher is trying to get her class excited and inspired to read. She asked if anyone would like to volunteer and read to the class. Piper’s hand was the only hand that went up.  She chose the book What Makes a Rainbow and sat so confidently up in the front of the class. It was hard to hear since she talked so softly but she had no problem reading the words correctly. Afterwards the class gave her a big applause and asked her to read again next week. We couldn’t be more proud of our little girl! It’s amazing to think as a baby she was so shy but has blossomed into such a self-assured girl. It’s also remarkable to see her reading! Way to go Piper Grace!  (there is a video below.  You can’t hear here but it’s cute to watch)
