SERIOUSLY - you won't believe this! After stressing out all last week about the dumb science fair project that K was required to do and turn in - the results are in. Now before you say that I did the project - WRONG!! I simply provided the idea that would be the most simplistic in the amount of time given and I assisted with typing and thought provoking questions. Tim assisted with sawing the boat and getting the materials - but K did everything else. The stressful part came in getting her to actually get it pulled together!
Anyway - today the results were announced. The started wiht 4th grade - Honorable mention, 3rd, 2nd, and then 1st place. The moved on to the 5th grade and then the 6th grade. K said that her name hadn't been called so she figured that she didn't win anything and was holding her friend's hand and saying "oooo - they are gonna call your name - I just know it!" - then the speaker said "and first place - for the 6th grade is K.B. - and she will be representing us at the district science fair next month!" K said she just looked towards the speaker and said "WHAT?".
Needless to say I'm a little surprised - but I'm happy for her. She better get on the ball NOW for the next one! Can you believe that? Sometimes I wish I had just an ounce of her energy and brain power - it would do wonders for my complexion and attitude - I'm sure!
In other news - we are still waiting to find out what part she'll play at the Shakespeare Festival - that was supposed to be announced last Monday, then they said it would be TODAY, and then today they said TOMORROW - love the waiting game - LOVE IT!
