Everyone made it

Well, it looks like everyone made it into the next grade.

 

Can anyone say WooHoo?!?

 

Johanna is headed into grade 11. Who would have thought it when we brought her home from the hospital. So small and relatively easy to care for. Now she's a few pounds heavier and bored with her classes. She can't wait to head out on her own, and in 2 years, she'll be gone. (Partial sigh)

 

Hillary graduated into Senior High, so this fall she changes schools. She's headed to the same school as Johanna is in now. There was a nice awards ceremony at her and Thomas' school, and she did well. These pictures are from her big evening out.

 

 

 

 

 

Thomas has made it into grade 8. There were days when we wondered if he would ever get into the next grade, but this year he just really kicked it. He missed the Honour Roll by a half a percent, (Shoot!) He's doing well and gonna have a great summer.

 

Micah is moving on up to grade four. He still has a bit of trouble with his handwriting, but he's on his way. Grade three is a very difficult year. They have to memorize their Times Tables, learn to write with handwriting, and a few other things which are difficult to do. Micah has been given an opportunity to attend Math "Camp" for a few weeks this summer. It's supposed to be a great program to help get the kids up to speed. He's looking forward to it allot, thankfully. He's already into summer mode. That boy gets all over the city on his bike. I'm glad we live in a city that is generally safe for that kind of thing to happen.

 

All in all a good year. Next week we'll go out to a nice restaurant to celebrate.
