Friday was a special day. The Lion’s Club came to do eye exams on the kids. They have the newest equipment. They have a hand held device that looks a lot like a radar gun. It has a smiley face on it, and the children look into the device, and the doctor snaps a picture and that’s it! The results will be mailed soon. The kids all seemed to like the whole project.

We got to go out for the first time in weeks, and the children seemed to love to run between the still snowy places and the wet ones. The sun was shining, and Kylie got to pass out her valentines with suckers and the kids were thrilled.

Later in the afternoon, we had our spelling be. Haidyn won! Yeah Haidyn. Jake came in second and that was a big surprise because Jake has just made the leap of 4-5 and from Middles to Kindergarten. We are sooooooooooooo proud of him. Kylie came in second – way to go Kylie.

Looking forward to the weather changing. One day cold, the next day warm, the next day sunny then rainy, then spring. So very exciting.

We have been working on telling ourselves about that which is good and that which is not. We’ve talked a lot about the rules and knowing them and just not minding. Good behavior is always a choice and we are encouraging every child to make a good choice every time.

This week we sent home our Bona Operas. This a good work the children promise to do during Lent. It’s a promise they make. Please remind your child of his promise during these forty days.
