Last night was Emily's Kindergarten Graduation. The kids sang songs from performances they had done throughout the year and then in groups of 4-5 the kids read books for us. After the readings we watched a slide show from all the activities for the year then had cake and punch. Emily's teacher was so stressed that she forgot to give out the certificates to the kids last night, so she handed them out in class today. OOPS, but that is ok.
Tuesday night we joined Michael at school for his academic award ceremony. He received two awards. One for having a 4.0gpa all year long and the other was for a good citizenship, with that award he received a $50.00 savings bond from the school.
Since April we still have been fighting with Emily on her hair color. Well she won. I have decided that this is not the fight I want to waste. I am saving that fight for the dating and clothing fights. But hair is just hair. So on Friday I picked up Emily from school and took her to the gal who does my hair and we had red highlights added to her hair. However with Emily's hair being as dark as it is, the highlights did not show up like Emily wanted. You could see them in the sunlight, but inside they were very subtle. Emily was very upset by this. So after talking with friends, they suggested that we head to a store in the mall called Hot Topic for temporary hair color in bright colors. So Sunday we headed out to the mall and bought her flaming red and hot pink. Don and I redid the highlights in her hair and she loves them. Again they look great in the sunlight, and not to bad inside. Emily is very happy and in 4-6 weeks after they wash out maybe she will not want them redone, But again we are talking about Emily and I don't think this will be the last time for highlights.
