Makinlee graduated from Pre-K on Thursday.  Where has the last 5 years gone?

Here she is receiving her Star Student award.  One child was chosen from each class.  I was thrilled when her name was called.  I’m so very proud of her!

Remember how worried I was about Makinlee 4 months ago? It’s amazing what being surrounded by friends, family, & the country will do for a child. I have my daughter back and even though at times I wish she would stop the attitude I wouldn’t change her for anything. Look out world because this girl holds nothing back. She’s a fighter, this little flip of a thing. It’s a battle sometimes but I know that she will never let anything stop her.

The last few days have been pure hell. When I do not feel well I am worthless. This cold has zapped me of my energy. Makinlee is better and back to her toddler ways. I’ve uploaded a few photos to the Honest Photography group on Flickr. This one of the goldfish food she poured out. It was everywhere including half in the fish bowl and the other half on the floor. There were also bits scattered haphazardly around the entire downstairs. Once she became bored with that activity she climbed the entertainment center and pulled down all of the books. I am sure you are wondering where the hell was I and what I was doing not to notice these things happening. I was actually trying to take a bath. You know, it’s been three days since my last one. I do try to get in at least one a week.
