I haven't blogged in a while on here. Monica returned and is in Texas. She's living with Kathryn and Ranny so she can take care of things as there was so much to take care of and we couldn't give her the help she needed. So Madi is living with us still and going to Ethridge. Kept her life as much the same as possible to as to keep things consistent until Monica can get a place of her own for the two of them.
Madi finished up our year of choir with a concert, school assembly, performances at the mall and a few days ago, a performance of the National Anthem at the Texas Legends Basketball Game. They were really phenomenal! Love those kids.
She'll be a member of the District Honor Choir starting in January when we have rehearsals. And she's also going to be competing in the Regional Spelling Bee since she won our school spelling bee today!! Lots of great things happening for her this year!!!
You could see her confidence growing as she spelled each word. It was awesome that the last two girls (her and Nithy) are best friends. They both are super smart and a lot alike. They really work well together and are just good kids. Both of them go on to the next round which will be in late January. So we'll have some spelling words to practice :)
