Warning: Bragging Mother Alert

Just a couple of quick things so that an entire week doesn't go past without me updating here.
I am just so proud of Abs at the moment as she seems to be doing really well in everything she is doing right now despite some of the issues we have had with her recently.

On Friday she came in from school excited to tell me she had a note in her diary that only 4 other kids got, and 5 from the other Yr 3 class had also been given. Seems she has been chosen to do some kind of Literacy Extension program on Fridays at school and they are planning a magazine. I can't tell you how thrilled to bits she is as she has been talking about making a magazine for ages (thanks to The Bratz Magazine!)

This morning she burst through the door after swimming, she had the biggest smile on her face and her eyes were absolutely shining with excitement as she had just passed her Level 2 of swimming and as of next week goes up to Level 3. She's been working really hard at this the past few weeks as she set it down as one of her goals to achieve this year in an exercise they did at school so now she has done it. I am so proud of her, and it's great for her to see her hard work paid off!

I think it topped off a great weekend for her as G and I took her shopping on Saturday (twin-free!) and she had us to herself all afternoon, got loads of new (and very cool) clothes, got some new books from the Go Girls series which she has just discovered and had lunch out as well.
She's been so good this weekend, she cleaned her room this morning, did her piano practise early instead of leaving it to the last minute and even had time to go play with her friends this afternoon and have a dip in their new spa!
