My daughter Kenzie comes home every month with tears in her eyes, she is never chosen as the star student. She couldn’t understand why, she always behaves, does everything asked etc. I couldn’t explain why.
So yesterday she comes off the bus with the biggest smile on her face trying to hide a blue paper from me. She finally screamed ” I GOT STAR STUDENT” She was so excited. good things come to those who wait!
Today is the last full day of school for my Kindergartener. Tomorrow and Friday is half days and then summer vacation. She got all dressed up for the occasion.
Thinking about it, today is the last full day of Kindergarten ever, next year it moves to half day.

*** My kids and I love Victorious, it’s actually become one of our favorites over iCarly. There is always drama and fun on the show which I think makes it good for kids. They can learn from certain situation portrayed in the show on handling those situations in school. One of our favorite episodes from season 1 is The Birthweek Song, Tori performs this beautiful song for her sister Trina. Trina is only interested in material things though and sells the song for cash to buy a hat. When she is to perform she sounds horrible and has to get Tori to make it right. All the episodes are funny, Robarazzi makes fun of TMZ with Robs own little gossip show, but it turns into revenge. Oh and the bonus features have 2 music videos that are great. My kids love the song Freak the Freak Out and Beggin on your Knees.

I have been a little disappointed with my childrens school, I have not been able to attend anything at the school because i don’t have a babysitter for my younger kids. Everytime I get an invitation to something It states in big bold letters Make arraigngments for your younger children. It irriatates me. So I took my kids anyway and got to see her last concert.
