Potty party and a Falcon party!! o

potty party!!!  Showing off the "boots" chones. 
What other green shirt would you possibly choose to watch  a football game if your name is Mika??
Maya looking for Molly. 
Outside the stadium,
Of course Mika found Auntie Vicki and gave her a huge hug...

Potty party, potty party. whewhewhewhew....
We had to share Mika's big accomplishment of her 100% being potty trained!! YIPEEEEE! We still have potty parties every time she goes... The big test was this past Friday at the first ever Falcon Football game where we were out in public with no bathroom  close by. She did awesome and held it in until we made the hike to the bathroom!! GO MIKA!!! Also... GO FALCONS!!! 
We had a blast at the "first ever Falcon Football game" in our brand new college-like stadium. Falcon Fever EVERYWHERE I tell you... Mika loved the game so much she didn't want to leave and wanted to go back yesterday. She even wanted to watch football on T.V. instead of Dora... What are we creating here??? 
After a survey given to the students last week, they said "All my teachers smile.... they are all so energetic... I feel like they actually care about me".. and I finally figured out why I love my new school so much... It IS the happiest school on earth.I even heard one girl say in the hall" I love all my classes!! "  I think our principal knew what he was doing when he hired the teachers he hired. I love so much every single one I've gotten to know so far because every single one IS  always positive and loves kids. I really do skip to class. I just know once the newness wears off this will continue to be the happiest high school on earth where each individual's gifts are recognized and celebrated through mastery learning.  
For now.. GO FALCONS!! AND GO MIKA!!
