YES!!!!! She is done.

Well second grade is finally over, now on to third we go. I never thought that just because you have a child in school that you would be going back to those grades as well. School sure is getting harder for these young ones than it was when I was their age. It seems like they are being taught things we weren't taught until at least 5th or 6 th grade. I am so glad for they summer. Mary needs a break and so do I. She had her awards day yesturday and she got the award for most determined. She will finish the year with an overall a and 2 b's or 2 a's and a b. I am not sure yet since we have not gotten her report card yet. We have also been told to work on multiplication for te summer so they will be ahead or at least not have as hard a time next year, since this is what they will be working on in 3 rd grade. I don't remember doing times tables in the 3rd grade, do you? They are really being pushed hard these days and not given much time to master the concept before moving on to something new. Those of you who do not have children or they are not in school yet, watch out you will be going back to school as well. Good luck.

Well also we are Gatlinburg bound. We are leaving Sunday after our team meeting. I cannot wait. We will be back sometime on Thursday. I will post more then. Have a good week.
