Halloween is a comin!

The girls are well-adjusted at school and loving every minute of it. The teacher in me wishes the kids would channel this well past grade 6! Their teachers are lovely. Very different but both offer them something. Apparently at recess they run to each other and hug. Sometimes Emma has asked to be in the same class as Madison, but overall I think they are ok with being in different classes. I am happy with this decision.

Halloween is coming and they are super excited. They are being princesses, again. This is their 5th Halloween and they have been princesses all but once and only because John and I made the decision for them because they were only 9 months! lol Oh well perhaps they will outgrow this once they are in high school! ha ha! They have had fun picking out pumpkins and apple picking and all the other fun Fall things that are offered. They get along well most of the time and i overhear the sweetest conversations between them. Today Emma got really angry at Maddie over a toy (it's always over a toy) and then later she went over and said "coochie (term of endearment they made up) do you forgive me?" and Maddie said "um, I will have to think about it" but then a minute later she said "I forgive you coochie" and they hugged. All without my intervention, so it was authentic. Love when that happens!
