Super Stars!

Yesterday morning I was able to eat breakfast with the kids at school before their big vocabulary parade/student of the month assembly!  Then, I joined the other parents in the courtyard for the vocabulary parade.  Each student had to pick a word and then decorate a crown or a t-shirt describing that word.  Kyan made his in class, while Lola's crown was made at home!  
Kyan walked around in the parade like a tropper, waving his pom-pom with the biggest smile on his face!  
 
Why no picture of Lola?  Oh she just cried {and I wish I would have snapped a picture of her, because it was hilarious}.  I knew that it was going to happen.  The jets were flying over and the echo through the school was super loud!  Plus, the amount of people that were there was just too much for her to handle.  She is crazy.  But, I was hoping that she could get herself together, because what she didn't know was that she was the student of the month in her preschool class and she was going to receive her award in about 10 minutes! 

Another reason why I went to their school yesterday!  I wanted to be there when Lola received her award!  She was already the star of the week a few weeks ago, now the student of the month!  Her teachers are killing me!  As if her head isn't already big enough?!  Her tears turned into smiles as soon as they showed her the crown and she gladly traded the one mommy made for her student of the month one!


The assembly was outside for the first time and it was kinda hard to hear, but it was so pretty and Lola grinned from ear to ear as she received her award!  No crying that time around!

We caught up with "brothie" at the assembly and snapped a picture or two with him!
He was very proud of his little sis!

Last, we had a doughnut and milk together before she had to go back to class!

 Best two hours I have spent in a long time!
