Mia's music observation redeemed
Remember last year about this time when I posted how I won the worst mother of the year award? If not the jist of it was I got the time wrong for Mia's music observation and showed up 1/2 hour late. She cried, I sobbed, in front of her whole pre-school class. I watch the DVD now and it makes me want to cry all over again. Well this year Colin had the day off again and I got it right. We were able to watch some very cute kids and do a fun dance. Mia picked me to dance with her and it would have been so much better if it had been Colin.
Mia also had Orff, I am not sure what that stands for but here is a sample of what she learned.

Mother's Day
I had such a wonderful Mother's Day this year! I got to sleep in before church, Colin got up with Cole, the early riser. The kids didn't wake me up until 7:30. I felt so good. Mia made me such a sweet gift at school. She made beads out of Fimo, I think, her teachers baked them and then Mia strung them with little silver butterfly beads in between. It matches the heart lapel pin she made me for Valentine's Day. It is so pretty and I really enjoy wearing it. She is so proud. Colin bought me some earings, one pair from each of the kids and wrote me a wonderful card. Colin made cinnamon rolls too. We went to church where the men taught all the classes, dipped strawberries in chocolate and got wraps from Costco, and we were all able to go to Relief Society and enjoy the lesson. I think I got to take a nap that day. We had a nice dinner and Colin did all the dishes. I could get used to this kind of treatment. Alas, it has been a few weeks and we are back to the mostly evenings on my own with three kids who think that bedtime means act like a lunatic time and see how much you can make your mother CRAZY!!!! Thank you, my loves, for making Mother's Day so sweet and special. Thank you for making me a mother. I love you!
