Goofy Kids

Kathry's fun night

Kathryn was going to have Skye curl her hair for the school dance yesterday but she decided to wear it straight instead, so I straightened it for her. Skye came over anyway to hang out with her, so that was nice. I really like Skye, she's got a great personality and can be real goofy which is fun. Skye went with me to drop Kathryn off at her dates house, and we ended up staying and visiting with his mom and helping Michael put the finishing touches on his costume. They looked so cute together and had an absolute blast last night. Kathryn was on cloud 9 all night, it made me happy for her. She really needed last night cause she's been having stress from so much homework and struggling in her chemistry class. She's been so blessed because she's never really had to work at school, and has always gotten A's, or an occasional B. Everything has always come so easily for her, so I don't think she really knows how to handle not doing great in all her classes. She's just having to try a little harder now.

Kathryn's Orchestra Concert

Kathryn had her orchestra concert tonight. They did an amazing job, this group of kids are so talented that you almost feel like you're a professional symphony. One of the songs they performed was actually written by a boy in the class. He wrote the song for a full symphony, every instrument including a harp. It was so impressive, and the song was beautiful. It was so cool because he got a standing ovation, and very well deserved by the way. So there was this guy sitting in front of us that was so rude as to sit there and text and mess with his phone during the entire concert. We just tuned him out so he didn't ruin it for us, but how rude can you be. Anyway it was a great evening, and Kathryn did an awesome job, we are so proud of her.

Green Lemons

For some reason the lemons on my little lemon tree didn't ripen this year. I was sad because I enjoy having fresh squeezed lemonade. I guess the tree is confused about the seasons. I better go have a talk with it because I want yellow lemons next year.
