Alayna is done with school for the summer. She's excited and sad. She loves school and learning, as well as spending time with her friends, but she anxious to have time off and be outside, go camping, ride bike, etc.
Ready for her last day of 2nd grade!
Second Grade was a great year for Alayna. She did really well in her classes and started to soar with her math skills. Remember when I commented that she was done with the addition fast facts? She ended the school year on level R of subtraction facts, well beyond what was recommended for her grade level. She also has been continuing to read and comprehend above her grade level. She loves to sit and read a good book, just like her Mom. Her penmanship is still in need of some work, but she's doing well and taking her time to write neater. It's come a long way since the beginning of the year!
Thursday was her last day and we went out to celebrate! Daddy and the little girls were down in the cities helping his cousin re-shingle his house, so Alayna and I had some much-needed one on one time (that she lacks while in school and her sisters have me all the time) We went to dinner, cheered on our church softball team at their league game (3-0 record!!), spotted a few bears on the way home and watched them for awhile, played a few games at home, then snuggled and went to bed. After the daycare kids left on Friday, we headed down to the cities as well.
About to head to dinner
It was a gorgeous day, so we ate on the patio.
Alayna thought it was so neat!
One of the 2 bears we watched for about 5 mins.
They were maybe a mile from the house.
