One of my favorite things about being a stay at home mom is being able to attend all of the school functions. I think the kids really look forward to me coming to the school. (At least this year they did) It is interesting to me how when the kids are in kindergarten there is always an over abundance of parents willing to participate. As they get older, that number goes down substantially. I cannot understand why. I feel so bad for the kids who long for there parents to be there. I try my hardest to be a mom for all of the kids.
Olivia's 5th grad class played a relay race. They had to run to the front of the classroom, grab a paper nose, dip it in Vaseline,stick it on there nose and run back to the line. Then the next person would go. Everyone on there team had to have there nose on to win. VERY cute. They then walked around singing Christmas songs.
The whole class dressed like Rudolf!
Owen got to eat cookies, play limbo, and decorated ornaments. It is a little hard going between both classes, but so much fun. I am so glad I was able to share in these special moments.
Each class also sang Christmas songs in the gym.
The 5th graders were not enjoying it quite as much as the Kindergartners. But, still a wonderful time.
Kelly - So glad that you are able to participate in Owen's and Olivia's school activities.
