Our very own superhero…

Em was awarded the “Super Cougar” award for the month of September. Super Cougars are good leaders in the classroom, exemplify good citizenship, are helpful to their teachers and classmates, and complete their work correctly and on time. (And have never had to sit in the “thinking chair” – which unlike the thinking chair from Blues Clues – is not a chair you want to be sent to!)

So pretty much, my girl is a “brown-noser.” I am so very proud of her. (I’m sure I’ve been called that a time or two in my life, as well.)

Well done, Ems. I’d say that is pretty good work, three weeks into school already kickin’ butt and takin’ names.

Stop by Tracey’s for more super shots.

All summer long. She has been trying so hard to master the monkey bars.

Hand over hand…

How many more bars do I have?

I can do it…I can do it…

And finally. Last week, she made it across without any help from Mommy.
How could this not be my Best Shot of the week?

You did it, kiddo. I knew those long, monkey arms and legs would come in handy.

Check out some other big achievements today at Tracey’s.

You finally give in. Allowing your long, willowy legs to be still and rest for a few stolen moments.

I watch you lying there with your hair sprawled across the pillow, your arms tucked up under your chin, and your tutu bunched up around your middle, as your eyelashes flutter closed. I think you look even more graceful asleep, than you do dancing.
