Grade 8 Class Representative
Jaimee 12 years of age |
It was an exciting day for
the J girl yesterday. She received her badge at assembly for grade 8 class
representative. Although I have a feeling I may have been the excited one. I
was getting mixed messages about whether or not it was the done thing for the
parents to go to the senior school assembly. Her words “No other parents ever go but you can come if you want”
in a flat tone but emphasis on the EVER.
So I went.
With the promise of not
whoohooing to loudly! I did stand up and take photos though much to the dismay
of the red head, only because her friends all turned around and looked at me
and saying “is that ya mum”. And I clapped really really loud J, secretly I think she loves it when I do the silly
mum stuff! Ad is always teasing her and threatens to walk around the house in
his orange undies when her friends are over. You should see her face!
We love to stir the kid up,
hehe!

Ad and I can never quite
work out how have been blessed by this wonderful kid. See, we were both ratbags
when we where at high school, well a lot of the time we weren’t at school.
Apparently Ad would hitchhike to the beach and go surfing and my friends and I
would just hang out at whoever’s parents were at work or go to the mall. Don’t
tell my mum though, don’t think she knows, yet!
Bek, my little sister,
would get hassled by the teachers all the time asking where I was. In the end I
think they gave up but then that thing happens. You know, when the oldest child
in the family wrecks it for the younger siblings. Bek use to get “oh your Stephanie
Roberts’s sister”. She did survive though unscathed and hopefully not scarred
for life.
So with all that Jaimee is
coping with on a daily bases, her Pdd-Nos, Ocd and anxiety she manages to excel
in all that she does. She is very academic and loves her maths and science, has
the respect of her peers and her school. She is confident, kind hearted,
polite, very caring, helpful, loves her family, friends and the support network
that surrounds her. Did I mention a crazy crazy sense of humour and quick
witted. Ok, I think you get the picture.
She just blows us away!
That’s a funny thing to say
when you have two very literally thinker’s in the house, haha!
We are so proud of our
sweet, caring and clever girl. Ad and I know she is destined for great things
in life so look out world she is growing up way to fast and she will leave her
mark.
Till next time
Steph
