>We went to our parent teacher conference this afternoon.  Gab got 
almost all pluses and one check plus in writing.  Not hand 
writing, but imagine this, my daughter is too wordy when writing 
stories.  This is a funny statement to me, she also talks alot.  
hehehehe! Here in NM, public schools use the check/plus system 
until mid year of third grade.  Then they move to letter grades.
>Today was wackie Wednesday.  the kids could bring in  a stuffed 
animal dressed in safari attire.  Lots of kids dressed their 
animals in cacki shirts or camoflage shirts.  the animals were 
judged for the best costume.  Gab's teddy won a prize for 
originality.  Gab made his outfit out of a piece of braille 
paper.  she cut out a vest and then drew some designs on it.  She 
then found a lid from one of her toy pots and tied it to his back 
with a rubber band.  the lid was also brown.  It actually looked 
like he was on a safari or maybe he was Indianna Jones.  I wanted 
her to take her Build a Bear dog, Sierra.  Sierra has an outfit 
that resembles a cave woman, but it reminds me of an 
archiologist.  Thats not a person on a safari, but that's what i 
think of.  But Gab wanted to take her precious teddy bear.  he is 
a tan bear with tiny ears, a big nose, a bow tie and great big 
feet.  He is made from a waffled material.  I have absolutely no 
idea where he came from.  Chuck openned most !
> of my shower gifts because i was in the hospital so long and he 
said that little bear just appeared in the house.  V
