First and Last

Yesterday was Hope's LAST day of 2nd Grade and FIRST softball game.

She had a great last day of school. The kids got to sign yearbooks and her teacher, Mrs. Wardlow, had a sweet little presentation at the end. She wrote a poem about their last two years together (she looped up from 1st grade with the class)and read it through tears. She also wrote an acrostic poem for each of the kids using their names. Hope's was:

Helpful
Optimistic

Performer
Enthusiastic

I think all of these words provide a great description of Hope!

With Mrs. Wardlow - We're going to miss her!

She also had her first softball game. She is playing "Coach Pitch" this year which is a VERY welcome change from the last 3 years of T-Ball. She had 4 great hits and did awesome at each of the positions she played - 1st base, 3rd base, and left field. Brandon is one of the coaches so they're really enjoying their time together!
