Kadence Poetry Café

 Kadence was very excited for her Poetry Café at school.  Kadence and her classmates have been very busy over the last month learning about poetry and writing their own.  She was so excited she was up early and asked me to curl her hair before school!
Kenzie looks up to her sister so much and had to dress up in a dress and jean jacket just like big sister.  Then she begged me to take a picture of the two of them.  Hard to say no to that.  Love these sisters!!
After each student had read their poems we had time for a snack and for Kadence to share some more of her poems with us.  She was so happy to have both Ryan and I there along with Grandpa Gary and Grandma Sue!
Kadence and her class was lucky enough to have eggs and and incubator right in their classroom this spring.  She has been giving us updates on them very frequently (unfortunately 21 days is a loooooooong time when you are 7).  I had to snap a quick picture of the 4 chicks that had hatched.  Kadence was so excited to show us all!
As Kadence was flipping through her poetry book I saw this poem titled mom and asked her to read it.  She was really shy about it and didn't want to read that one.  Well...after she read it, I kind of understood why.  This one stings a little even though I know how much she loves me.  I guess it's probably true...

This has easily been one of my favorite kid events thus far!  We are so lucky Kadence is at such a great school with such a phenomenal teacher!
