I haven't posted in over a year, but that doesn't mean nothing happened. It's just that life happens. I've been enjoying time with Kendra. When not with Kendra, I've been tired. It is tiring running after a 6 year old! I work all day, pick Kendra up, play, make dinner, bathe her and by the time she goes to bed, I'm ready for bed too. But I don't go; I usually sit around and veg until I crawl into bed too late.
Kendra is in grade 1 now and doing so well. She is a very good reader and very good in the areas of math and science. I really hope it stays that way. She recently passed her level 2 Red Cross Swimming Lessons. I'm so proud of her. I don't want her to be like her Dad and not swim. She is going to be in soccer starting in a few weeks. She seems to like it. Last year, she took part in the Rattlers soccer summer camp and really enjoyed it. They were tough on her. He muscles ached each evening, but she didn't quit and found that she had learned a lot when she went back to school and played soccer with the other kids. She loves being better. This is motivating her for this season. She loves knowing stuff that the kids do not.
She has one two awards this year at school. The first one was for fair play in phys ed. They gave her a subway giftcard along with a certificate. The second one was a SWEAT award. Student Work Ethic and AchievementT award. I'm so proud of her for this one. She also won 15 dollars to spend at the spring book fair.
I can honestly say that she loves school and all her activities. I wish she had a brother or sister to play with, but that just didn't happen. I wish there were more kids in this neighborhood. She loves to play and sometimes it is exhausting having to be the one she plays with all the time.
We are now looking forward to spring break. We have booked at Radium for the weekend. I need a soak for my joints, muscles and just destressing. We will see if it actually works. We get 10 days off starting in 4 days and I have to say that it will not come soon enough.
