Samantha’s teacher had a baby last week. She asked me if I could go to Facebook to find a pic. I replied “No,” without getting into why. Immediately, she said “What about Twitter or YouTube?”
I was shocked that she knew about those social media outlets, and that she lumped them together as a group.
My first official 5K was for the Junior League of Birmingham 5K for Kids. A colleague is Race Day Chair, so I thought I would join in and support her cause. It was a great first race, with almost perfect weather! My official time was 32:33, and I placed 19th in my age group. Samantha was disappointed that I didn’t win, but I had to explain that it’s ok because I tried my best and I was proud of myself.

Vulcan showed up at Regions Field too!
We love gymnastics. Ok, maybe it’s just me. And Alabama gymnastics? Those girls are always talented. They make it easy to cheer for them.
This year we went to the Georgia and Stanford meets. I’m considering going to the SEC Championships or National Championships, both of which are here in town.
I loved the photo cutout at the Stanford meet. Clever.
I had seen a cool looking cape at gymnastics practice a while back. I talked to the mom, and she said her teacher had made the whole class a cape at school. And it looked easy. I’m talking: e.a.s.y. That’s my kind of project.
It took me a long time to buy the $3 shirt, but after I did that, it took about 2 minutes to complete. I didn’t add any embellishments to it. It was immediately taken and used since then. Now I have a new addition to the family. Super Blue Girl to the rescue!
I made Ellie one too. But Rapunzel doesn’t wear capes.
Sam lost her other top front tooth at school. Apparently, she bit down too hard while at lunch and her tooth started bleeding. It caused issues with the other Kindergarten teacher and the PE teacher. I couldn’t get a clear picture of the whole story, so I have no idea why the PE teacher had anything to do with it.
The permanent teeth are no where to be seen, so for now, we tease her by asking her to say things like “first,” “three” or “frozen.” But, she takes the little teasing because she gets to use 2 straws!
