We made Kyla stay home from skiing last Sunday in hopes she would fight the cold and not miss any school. So off she went Monday and Tuesday and even made it to gymnastics class yesterday. But at 5am this morning (it always happens with her in the 5am hour) she comes into our room wheezing, crying, panicking and coughing. Yep. That's right croup again. (This poor girls has had croup so many times I have lost count. Every doctor tells me she should have grown out of it by now. Another post all together.) So we did what we always do...give her some meds, take her into the shower and then outside to look at the stars. This routine works for us and always has. Once Kyla got settled and accepted the fact that she would have to miss school she decided today would be the perfect day to hand make all of her valentines for school. So off I was at 6:45am searching the craft closet for supplies and by 8:30am we had them all cut out and 6 of them addressed. Only 21 more to go. I love that she wants to make them herself and address them herself. What great writing practice. She pulled out the class directory and started addressing them all on her own. It just shocks me sometimes how quickly she is growing up. I am amazed by what she has learned and how much she has matured these past few months. School is so great for her and even her gymnastic classes have pushed her to do things she would have never been able to do just a few months ago. She is a great kid and I am so proud of her!
We also got to see the most beautiful sunrise. This is our view out of living window. Breathtaking!
