Another FIRST! Tatum’s first A/R test.

She was the FIRST person in her FIRST grade class to take the FIRST A/R test. To be able to do this, she had to have passed all of her site words. She did this back in Kindergarten in February..

but they still tested her this first week.

She came home and read me the book. The First Day of School. I’m seeing a FIRST theme here.

The book was so close to she and Cooper having to say goodbye for the first day of school. (the boy in the book had a new puppy, Cookie).

Welllllllll, the next day, Mrs. Finnman stopped me in the parking lot to tell me Tatum had good news.

She was the ONLY one to pass in her class of 17.

WOW! She came home with a new book and can’t wait to get started.

I was the FIRST to give her the biggest hug and kiss.

So proud of you and your brain. (This is secondary to your beautiful heart, my sweet).
