Worked 12:30-7:30 today. Very grateful my boss decided to not only start me with a short day, but she didn't make me come in at 6:45am. Haha! Very much appreciated. Also grateful it was a fairly slow day at work. After being in paradise for 5 days, it's a tad difficult to come back to an overwhelming day at work. Actually... looking back, I really would have been okay with an earlier shift. I wouldn't have had to miss my baby sister Amanda getting her award for the art show she was in. She's only 9 and she's an incredible little artist. Her artwork won 3rd place among the entire K-5 group for all of VBCPS. I am beyond proud of this little girl.
I was very sad I couldn't be at the award portion (which took place at 6:30pm just down the street from where I work), but I flew over there as soon as I left work. Ended up getting there just after 7 and was able to get this:
Day036: My Little Artist
I hate the flash in this picture... and I have a couple others that I tried taking it without it... but her smile in this one won me over. She looks so friggin happy in this picture- it's probably the best picture I've ever taken of her. Her piece is the one hanging above and to her right... top left of the photo. The one with the little yellow ribbon on it ;-) So glad I got to see her piece with her there. She got to tell me about it and show me the other ones from kids in her class that made it into the show as well. She's an amazing little kid. :)
