i love this girl. i am not the mom who sits w/her kid to do homework (sorry). kymora's always just done it on her own. i explain it once and she delivers. yes, i know she's only in 1st grade and it'll get harder etc etc... but i found a list of spelling words buried in my paper work on monday. how about the test is oh, on thursday. 50 words. yes, 50. so, i made her write down all the words on her flash cards. by the end of dinner i quizzed her on 30. done. bam. no going over it one more time. 20 more to go tomorrow and we are good.
on monday, she also had to memorize a poem for friday. my mom went over it with her a few times and she's got it down.
this may be normal, for you moms, but i was impressed.
we've always bumped heads (since she was 2) we are too much alike. i just hope that she isn't like me when it comes to excelling in life. like all you moms (all 3 of you) that read my blogs, we just want the best for our kids.
sidebar, she's been such a big help at home. entertaining her brother, comforting him if he's hurt, giving me a hand w/her chores: drying dishes, putting away laundry, making her bed.. i love her.

holy moly. that first pic is a trip. i can see the "big girl" in her. weird.
bumping heads... no need to elaborate. same here. its a panganay/mother-daughter thing. i dont get it either.
butting heads. i think all moms go through that with their daughters. kymora doesn't fall far from the malea tree. :)
i love her too. you're a good mom, auts. rosie, i mean mom, did a good job.
butting heads, will last for a few more years. kira and i dont do it nearly as much, thank god, i was having such a hard time with it!
