Music to a mama's ears...

I emailed Gabby's pre-K teacher yesterday just to check in. Of course, she's been coming home with smiley's on her daily report....but I just wanted to make sure the teacher didn't have any questions/concerns for me. Here's the response I got...

"Hi! Gabrielle is an absolute delight to have in class. She is eager to start each day. She is kind and caring to others in our class and looks out for them. I know that she is going to have a great year. She is always smiling. :) Hope you have a great day!"

Ah, music to a mama's ears!


This was this morning before school (for Jaden & Gabrielle) & daycare (for Corinn). I wanted to show off Gabby's dress - just the green portion was a Walmart special that she LOVES! But as she got taller (all 3 are shooting up like weeds lately!), the dress got shorter and daddy made it very clear that she could no longer wear her favorite dress outside of the house.

Well, mama & Gabby came up with a plan....let's sweetly ask Nana (my mother) to help make it longer! Mama can sew a little, but has neither the time nor the patience for such a project. Give me a fallen off button - that I can take care of! So Nana added a little ruffle skirt to the bottom and made a matching belt to replace the worn green one that came with the dress. Gabby was THRILLED! And so was daddy!


And of course I can't leave out Mr. Cool!
