Rockin' along.......

As I mentioned in my last post, Katey was chosen to be an Ambassador at the Storytelling Festival.  She not only told her story in the opening ceremonies (in the beautiful auditorium at historic Hillsborough High), but she told it in front of a smaller audience in a classroom.  They also asked if she would videotape her story.....for future festivals.  One little girl loved it so much she and her Dad hunted Katey down afterwards and hugged her.  I think K felt like a celebrity.  That night, we went to the Taylor Swift concert.  She did not disappoint........we had so much fun!!  Exhausting day.........up at 6 and didn't go down until about 11:30.  Worth every second :)  Oh, and by the way, the photo of Katey with the TS decorated car is not our car.......the next morning at Target we saw it and thought it a perfect exclamation point to our night!!
A week or so ago, we got the news we (me) "feared."  Katey did get moved up to the next level so starting June 10, we are 4 days a week, 3 hours a day.......do the math and yawn!  Actually, it's great news and Katey is very excited.  I am going to have one tired little girl on my hands this Summer........Camp will start at 8:30 each day and she'll be going until practice ends at 7:30.  I'm guessing that I won't get any push-back at bed time!!!  One more month of 3rd Grade........time is flying!  Enjoy your day, every day! :)
