I should be excited! Right? Well, part of me is so excited for her to begin this journey. It’s a whole new class with new starts.
Last year was hard for Tatum due to some bullying from so -called friends. Hurtful and hard to watch her come home daily crying (and lashing out). She was assigned to be an ambassador to a new girl, Felicity.
They ended up hitting it off, and so I requested for them to be in the same class (this was also the class with Hayden whom she has been buddies with since Kinder). Mrs. Merrick has been at PVCP for over 20 years and is know to be a bit tough. In fact, the other 5th grade class was bigger, so it made sense for Tatum to go into Merrick’s. I’m quite excited about the smaller class and hopefully less drama.
The sad part for me is that I will miss that little girl. She became more of a “friend” this summer which I know is not necessarily good, but with my health so poor, I really bonded with her. She was a rock for me, and she just loved and supported me; no expectations …just love. Often she would sing to me (with Coopy of course)
We’d draw together, read together, do school together, and watch shows. Bluey and Bingo was one!
The night before, Daddy and I sent her off with GOD’S love supporting her too!
This rock star is so many more things, but especially so KIND and GOD-Loving. (along with creative, FUN/FUNNY, and beautiful inside and out)
I made the fam build your own nachos with baked potato chips!
And…
TRUE STATEMENT:
I bought her a little CUDDLES to hold every night (thanks daddy for the idea for a name)
He came in the car ride and I was told to keep him near me all day.
GREAT IS THY FAITHFULNESS! Yes! This year’s theme.
I LOVE YOU TOT! MAY YOU SHINE like the SON this year.
