THE UPS AND DOWNS OF LIFE










THE UPS!!!

**Stephanie was super excited about starting her first day of kindergarten at Hickman School. On Mondays, she participates in an 1 1/2 hour special class for kindergarten homeschool students called "The Children's Garden".

**Stephanie's friend, Lauren, also attends her kindergarten class. Steph was happy to already have a friend to talk to and share with during class.

**Stephanie had fun working with shapes, tracing her body, and playing "freeze dance" with Miss Shelly, her teacher and our family friend.


THE DOWNS!!!


**Her name on her nametag was spelled incorrectly. Stephanie just laughed.

**After class, we were talking with a friend who noticed that Stephanie had a little bit of yucky in the corner of her eye. She told us that she thought that Stephanie might have pink eye, even though her eye was not pink. We went to the school nurse, and she felt like it probably was pink eye.

**Stephanie hasn't been sick since we moved here, so she hasn't been to the doctor in over two years. Several tears were shed on the way to the doctor-hers, then mine.

**She now has to have eye drops 3 times a day for the next 5 days. Because it is very contagious, we have to sanitize everything that she touches for the next 24 hours.



Life is full of ups and downs!!!

Hopefully tomorrow will have more ups than downs.
