Charlie Grace turns 7!
This birthday was super special for Char Bear. She counted down for weeks leading up to her birthday. Finally on the day of her birthday, Mommy and Daddy had a big surprise in store for her.
Hmmm... is that Sporty Jester at the door? I wonder who she is there for?
Charlie sees the famous Sporty Jester from across the room and me standing in the corner. She is starting to put 2 and 2 together. You can see her wheels turning. Funny thing though, there are two birthdays in her class on October 5th. Is it for her or isn't it for her?
Mrs. Lupescu brings all of the kids to the floor. Charlie sits in the first row patiently to find out why the jester is in HER class on this sunny October 5th morning.
Wa-la!
Sporty Jester calls Charlie to the front of room. Yippie, Mommy and Daddy got me a jester this year!!! Woo-hoo!!
The jesters at McGaugh are the special way that a mommy and daddy can celebrate a birthday or other special occasion at school. We are not allowed to send treats. Instead, you can donate money to the media center. In doing so, you get to write a dedication to a beloved book in your child's name. The jester comes to class, reads the dedication, reads the book, and does a special talent for the kids in class. Sporty jester was our special guest for Charlie. Sporty Jester does a trick with a basketball and rides a pogo stick with no hands. Charlie loved. Now her special book will remain in the McGaugh library for many, many years.
Here is Charlie's special book and dedication time on her 7th birthday!
We love you Char-Char!!
