Nicole's Accomplishments
Well they say things happen in 3s, but this week, Nicole had 4 great things happen to her. Me, being the proud mother that I am, needed to share her good news.
First, while she was in Math class this week with Mrs. Bracht, Nicole's homeroom teacher, Miss Ghaster, came in and called her and another student out into the hallway to talk to them. Even though Nicole has never gotten in trouble before, that was the first thing that crossed her mind. Miss Ghaster took pictures of Nicole and Josh with their "Presidential Campaign Poster" that she created a few weeks ago (see December archives) for the school Yearbook.
Then today Nicole attended two celebration parties with those eligible classmates. One party was recognizing those students that met 4 of their 5 performance goals for this marking period. The other party was a Behavior Reward party for those students who received positives on their Character Cards.
Lastly, Nicole was one of those chosen as Student of the Month for December. The ceremony is next Thursday, so stay tuned for pictures.

Meteor Shower
I'm so tired. There was a meteor shower early this morning, so I set my alarm clock for 5:00 a.m. It went off and I got Dan out of bed. He turned to his clock and it was really only 3:30 a.m. For some reason, the time on my clock got switched.....must've been a "twilight" moment. So we went back to sleep. At the real 5 am, all 3 of us woke up, bundled up and sat outside in the back for 45 minutes. Max was smart enough to stay inside where it was warm.
It looked like falling stars about every 5 minutes or so. I think in total I only caught about 5 from my eyes. It happens so quickly that if you're not looking at the right part of the sky, you could easily miss it. Had hot chocolate and warm oatmeal and went back to bed AGAIN. Sorry no videos, it was impossible to catch on tape.
