Luv, Lafter, Play and Success!

No fab trip to talk about, but certainly a fab weekend to tell about. After 3 dayz of missing my gurl i got to pick her up from her theater class at ACO. This was her second time to go. The first time she went they auditioned for parts and this time they got the full script and got assigned there parts. She got the part of the daughter. The play is called "The Truth" and it is about a two children who learn that you cant make a truth out of a lie. I'd tell more, but i cant go giving away they whole plot and ending. Maybe some of you can come up to see they play? Its not until November tho. After getting home we got in a good solid hour of Barbies, had some lunch, played babysitter where we cracked up making crazy baby noises, and then i taught Science and Heritage Studies for the first time. It went very good. She is such a smart gurl, which makes the teaching all that more easy. I learned a lot over the weekend too about how and what to prep; not prep and how to go about teaching. It is great to have the option and the freedom to not have to follow the teachers guide word for word; step by step. I found myself covering things w/o the manual and found her answering questions before we even got to them. BTW we are learning about farms in heritage studies and we learned about Forces in Science. I am looking forward to covering the upcoming lessons this coming Friday, Saturday and Sunday (the days i have decided to teach). I had gotten a scale to use for our Gravity lesson and when we were done she asked me if she could have it. Of course, so she immediately wanted to play a game involving it. hehe. It was grocery shop where at the check out she weighted each item and determined how much it cost by how much it weighed. it was awesome. Played a little outside, including superhero's and a play very much like the one she is doing at ACO (i think she likes drama ; ). Sunday was wonderful Church, then home to play Barbies and to do some school before heading to Fun City for a B-day party. It was for one of the boys that she goed to Treehouse w/. She had a really good time; glad we went. We boogied home, she played Cinderella on her V-smile and then we did the rest of our school for the day. Before bed, in the bed, we reenacted this magic show we watched earlier. Its this show where they show you a trick and then show you how its done. Kelly was the masked magician and two unicorns were the assistants. it was hilarious and we were bustin up by the end. So the weekend was just full of love, laughter, play, and successful school! Later.
