Good Students

Friday morning, Andy and I attended an awards ceremony at the school. Tony was awarded STUDENT OF THE MONTH by his teacher Ms. Koile! Tony was presented with a certificate and bag of goodies from the principal.

Tony's 4th grade teacher, Ms. Koile joined us during the ceremony and wrote this on Tony's certificate:

"Antonio is new to Catalina this year and we are so lucky to have him. He is one of those special students who is kind and thoughtful to everyone. I know his acts of kindness are genuine because I have observed them on several occasions when he doesn't realize I am watching. He regularly offers words of encouragement during Class Councils and shares personal experiences that help promote a positive classroom environment. He is also one of only a few steduents with perfect attendance this year! Thank you for making our class a better palce and keep up the great work!"

So awesome!!



Mylo is also now officially registered for school. He and I attended the Kindergarten Roundup and got all his registration papers completed, met a few Kinder teachers, and got a "homework" pack for him to complete this summer. Mylo was so excited to have"homework", he got right to work when we got home and is already nearly finished with the whole book! It's always fun to do homework with the big boys.



Good stuff...I just hope they don't ask me to help them with math :)

Be Mine

Happy February, All! Lots of exciting Valentine-y things going on in the MirAndy family. Biggest news, of course being, Andy and I are ENGAGED! It wasn't really a surprise. We've been planning for awhile, but now it's finally official and we're STOKED! Look!


Woo hoo! So awesome.
In other news, Andrew has joined karate this round and will be joining in Mylo's class. Both boys are excited to be in class together. Tony intends to sign up for little league baseball next weekend so more to come on that next week! Maxton is still on the fence about karate. Sometimes he really just wants to hang out and play trains. That's cool with me. The kid's got a great imagination!

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day. Mylo and Maxton both have their Valentines made out and ready for distribution. Mylo has Angry Bird Valentines w/ tattoos and Maxton has Cars Valentines w/ pencils. Tony and Andrew brought cookies with THICK frosting and sprinkles for ice cream sundaes for their V-Day parties on Friday. I miss those fun school parties!



Andy surprised me with some lovely Valentine flowers too! Best Hunny EVER! aaaannnnddd he even does dishes..:)
