Evie was one of two kids from her class picked for a scholastic award today. One of the two in the whole class for the whole year. We are proud of her!

I Made Art
Evie came in and told me she made some art in her room and showed me this picture. As it states, she said “It’s my cat.”
Then she said “I call him Buttons!”
First Tooth Lost
Went to pick her up from school and was greeeted by this!
Man On A Bike
We were driving to school and this happened.
Evie – “Wow, you don’t see that everyday!”
Nana – “You mean the man riding the bike in slacks and a dress shirt?”
Evie – “Yeah, that and it has a basket!!!”
Already
Andy has been watching a lot of Super Why lately. We have magnetic letters on the fridge and Evie points to them and he calls them out. He recognized about 6-8 that she tested him on while I was watching. He’s still about a week or so away from a year and a half. I did a video to prove it on 1/31 but it was too big to upload, apparently. Since then, he’s not been quite as cooperative but yesterday I got a really good one of him doing like 5 in a row. It was too long, too! So I went back to the 31st video and trimmed it so it’s only 3 letters. But he can do a lot more.
Math Whiz
Evie – “What is arithmetic?”
Nana – “It’s just a fancy word for Math.”
Evie – “Oooh, I like Math. I’m really, really good at it, too! Woooie, I get the heck outta Math!!”
How Can You Argue With That?
Nana – “What are you doing wearing those boots in the rain?”
Evie – “Well, Nana, when you’re stuck inside, what’s better than a pair of warm, cozy boots?”
Job Performance
Came out of my room and said “Oohh, I smell Pasgetti!”
Evie yells from down the hall “What did she say? Pasgetti? We need to fire her!”
Helping Your Neighbors
Evie – “When me and Mom went to Fry’s, she got me a root beer float cuz there was an employee in need.”
Nana – “Oh, so they were doing like a fund raiser to help an employee?”
Evie – “Yeah, and it helped two ways. One, it helped the employee get money. And two, it help me get a root beer float!”
