It's been forever.

I didn't realize I hadn't done anything in August. I guess with school getting started and things changing up at work I haven't realized I was remiss. Well so far Bayli is doing well in school. Loves her teacher Mrs. Eakins. She had her for volleyball camp last year and that's who she wanted, so she really lucked out. Maybe I've been putting it off because this is a hard month because my baby turns 11 tomorrow and I am not ready for that at all. My cell phone rang yesterday and it was Bayli's teacher, so of course you instantly assume they have done something. She was like how are you, haven't talked to you since the first day (which makes me think she is working her way up to telling me bayli has done something awful) and then asks how things are on our end school wise. I said they are fine, but what about your end!?!? She said Oh Bayli is doing great. No complaints grade wise or behavior. This would be where I finally took a breath. She said Bayli was easy to love. Well duh, she's my daughter what do you expect. Said she is always willing to participate in discussions and not just in science. She said she has already reached 100 AR points for the year (thats 10 more than she is required for the whole year). She said her handwriting is not too good. I said I know, I've been trying to help with that, but it continues to be awful. She said she thinks it has got just a little better. I think she has just learned how to read it. All in all it was a great conversation and it made me feel good that she is reaching out to the parents. Most teachers don't just call to check in. It made me feel good and proud of Bayli.
