Baby Clue #4 - it is an actual name and not a number, animal, vegetable or mineral. A friend asked the question if the baby's name was 20 since I had a Facebook posting describing the crazy numerical connection for Beca between her preschool (where her daycare pickup number was 20) and her Kindergarten (where she is #20 out of 22 kids when their first names are arranged alphabetically). It was pretty neat that there was such a connection. Ok, well neat to some dorky engineers.
Yesterday, Beca had "graduation" from her class. She got a cap that was made for her and a diploma. The kids were so sweet as a bunch said they would really miss Rebecca. Her teachers made her a wonderful Memory Book and she got a frame with a picture of all the graduates, which they all signed. She's the only graduate leaving for year round school so the rest don't leave until August or September. She kept saying she was really going to miss her friends. Then, she also got to meet her new teacher who I had the best feeling about at Orientation. Her teacher is going to miss the next 2 weeks of school though because she was on track 4 last year and planned her wedding for track 4. So there will be a substitute for 2 weeks but Beca seems excited about school still. Good thing - as my grandmother said - she's got plenty more years to go.
Beca made it off the bus but almost forgot her backpack until I asked her where it was. Thank goodness - the packet of papers was huge! But its all good information, except the "pay us for school pictures without ever seeing them". Hmmm... I'll have to think about that. She wasn't overly chatty but was willing to help just for a little bit on some things at the house and then she needed a break. Which gave me time to set up Baby sister's pack and play in the living room. We've got everything we have to have at this point. And I'm just ready to meet her (and stop having her try to push on my ribs and pelvis at the same time). Less than 11 days now...
