Along for the Ride

Thursdays are my volunteer days at school. Dao is still home from work from his concussion and he had a doctor appt scheduled for the afternoon, so he came with me to volunteer. (Grandma had Pay)

Of course I have no pictures of us sitting in the hallway listening to kids from Haley's class individually read to us (which is what we did most of the morning), but I remembered to pull out my camera just after we had lunch with Kaylin and Emma. Daddy walked his girls out to the playground for lunch (they begged us to stay for recess). Just after I took this picture, Emma took off with her girlfriends to go chase boys the entire recess! She barely waved to us when it was time to go! Silly girl!

Kaylin hung out with us (literally).

When Daddy teased her about being on the "short" bar, she walked over to the bigger bar where all of her friends were.

She is the shortest one in her group, and she totally works it. Her sweet friends let her use their back so she can hop up on the bar. She lost one of her shoes while twirling around on the bar and her friend helped her put it back on. Dao and I tried to explain to her friends that she is capable of climbing and twirling up on that bar on her own (she does it on ones twice this size in her gymnastics class), but they all thought it was cute and funny, and didn't listen.

I made them hold still long enough to take a picture of them together.

I'm so glad she has such close friends in her class!
