Hannah has been busy the last few weeks. Three weeks ago she went to the bowling alley on a field trip with her summer camp. She dropped an eight pound bowling ball on her big toe and bruised it pretty bad. I took her up to the office to take an x-ray and thankfully it's not broken, but she is going to lose the nail. Two days later, a friend accidentally stepped on it and then the next day it got stomped intentionally. She handled it all pretty well and is doing much better now.
We went shopping for school clothes and found lots of cute things and of course she had to have some Hannah Montana and High School musical shirts. We also found the cutest glittery pink high tops that I would so wear if they made them in my size. Much like my best friend Amber, I had envisioned my little girl with a cute pink backpack with her name embroidered on it, but she just had to have High School musical. I have no problem with the movie, I was just picturing cute little girl stuff, not teeny bopper stuff in the first grade.
She was very nervous about starting school and was afraid of getting picked on becuase of her Tourette's, but everything has gone great so far. Her teacher, Mrs. Earls is so sweet and Hannah loves her already. She has had a great couple of days and is thrilled that she gets to buy ice cream on Fridays. She has decided that the rainbow pop is first on her list. They also got to name the mice that live in a cage in her classroom. She named the boy mouse Fat Boy ("because he's fat", she said.) She also has the job of feeding them. Last night she said, "Mama, I don't feel like I'm prepared for first grade." I think she changed her mind today and she's feeling much better about it.
