100th Day of School




Today was Evan's 100th day of school celebration. I have never understood what was so special about the 100th day of school - why not the 95th day of school? Last night as Evan was counting out her 10 piles of 10 Honey-Nut Cheerios it dawned on me. She has just learned how to count to 100 by 10s! She did a great job with no help! Each child brought 100 objects to glue onto their paper to reinforce the counting. Since Mardi Gras season is heating up, they went to the Mardi Gras Museum afterwards. They made masks, got beads, looked at the floats and got to meet the King and Queen of one of the Krewes. We cannot wait to go to the Children's Mardi Gras parade in a few weeks. There are a ton of throws (sometimes even Spam sandwiches and hot dogs) and lots of fun!
