Before Thanksgiving (I know, I'm behind - I'm trying to catch up before the end of the year so I can print out this blog!), Ashley's class had a special Thanksgiving lunch in their class. This was a big deal for several reasons: (1) Kindergartners don't usually get to eat lunch at school, (2) the kids were asked to dress like pilgrims or indians, and (3) because everything is a big deal when you're 5/6 years old!
Ashley wanted to dress as a pilgrim, but didn't tell Mom until THAT morning, so this is what we came up with.
When Mom and Dad got to school, we noticed Ashley's non-pilgrim-like headdress. Turns out she decided to be an indian when she found out their headpieces were more stylish than the pilgrims.
I still can't believe our Kindergarten teacher does all of this. There's a reason I'm not a Kindergarten teacher.
While we're on the subject of Kindergarten, Ashley got to perform in her first school program this winter! In keeping with politically-correct public school criteria, she was a Wind Fairy in a production of The Share Bears. What? The moral of the story was "when you give, you receive" which is pretty universal. The boys in her class were bees. So cute! I apologize for my novice videography, but the family cinematographer (Justin) lives in Iowa!
