Thanksgiving Chicken

I picked Makaela up from school yesterday, and as we were driving off she burst into tears as she realized that she forgot to bring home her Thanksgiving Turkey that she had made at Kindergarten. I know she had been working on it for a few days as she mentioned it often and she was very excited about it. I assured her that her teacher would save it for her and that we wouldn't forget it the next day.

This morning as we were pulling into school she remembered and asked, "Mom, do you think Mrs. Anderson still has my chicken?" She caught me laughing out loud...oops.

Moving On

Makaela has had quite a month! She left the only home she's ever known in Colorado to move to Washington State. New school, new friends, new home, new spiders...(we won't talk about that one!) She was an angel during the 1100 mile drive! She's been pretty brave in our new adventure! I want to be like Makaela when I grow up! Brave, adventurous and confident!
