Caroline's New Do

Here's Caroline sporting her new haircut! She loves it!

A couple of weeks ago, she got a second haircut from a non-professional (read: a little girl). We debated whether we should layer it to mask the pieces that were missing, or if we should just cut it to mostly one length. We let Caroline decide, and she went with this short bob. She had a little buyer's remorse when she realized that she couldn't wear her hair in pigtails or a ponytail for a while. However, she quickly cheered up when we played hair salon tonight, trying a few new styles.

It was a big day for her...she was finally Fabulous Friend in her Kindergarten class. For all of you non-Kindergarteners, that means that she was able to share with her class something special to her (her pink dragon Webkin, pictured, that she got from her sweet friend, Claudia). She was also able to tell the class about some favorite things (book, colors, animals), share some pictures of her family, and she was also the teacher's helper for the day. This was a day that she has been anticipating for all year, so she was even more excited to go to school than she normally is! :)

We have been thrilled with her progress in school. It is an amazing thing to watch her learn how to read and write, and to see her excitement and pride in her accomplishments. Here's an example of her handiwork that she just brought home today...If you are having trouble reading it, you can click on the picture to make it bigger.
