Sunday, Sunday

Gracie and I literally stayed in our pj’s all day Saturday. She wasn’t feeling the best so we made the most of it. Sunday morning she was still coughing but no fever so we went to church but kept her with us in ‘big church’. She did okay. Never fails that right in the middle she has to go potty!!

I was thrilled she can still fit into her cute size 2T dresses from last fall. That’s nice to get 2 seasons out of a dress!!

We took a few pictures out front because she was just in the best mood. I realized after that her bow was gone. I asked her what happened to it and she replied, “I lost it in Daddy’s car.”

Kelly wanted a Daddy/Daughter pic too!

I (all by myself!!) wrote a grant at school to be able to buy some fun educational learning games for my Special Ed kids. I worked VERY hard on it but I really thought that if you wrote one, you pretty much got it. Well, that wasn’t the case. I was one of 153 applicants and only 53 of us won, so yea me!! It was a super big deal at school and everyone kept congratulating me. I was really proud!! My grant was for $700 worth of fun toys and games to help kids with autism and kids with other sensory or learning disorders. Pretty Cool! Now I get to shop and play the fun games with the kids!!!
