Leila's open house at school. We got to see her classroom and some of her artwork up in the hallway :)

So proud of her!

Of course seeing her project that she wrote about "her mom" being her hero, how could I say no to stopping at the Book Fair - haha.

Leila's class performance (actually her class and two other second grade classes) was called "The Cheese Stands Alone" and Leila was Mozzarella Cheese :)

Don't know why I worried about finding all white clothes for Leila since she is all the way on the top back right - haha.

Leila getting ready for her lines :)

My Little Mozzarella :)

The girls and I went to see Riverdance. It was a great show and the girls really enjoyed it. This was the first time Leila was in an actual theater and she was amazed by all the chandeliers and fancy lobby.

The girls and their dance teachers got to meet some of the dancers and musicians after the show :)

Saadia and Leila with the drummer, the lead Irish dancer, and the Spanish dancer.

Leila was totally awestruck and speechless if you can believe that - haha.

Saadia and I went to the Bon Jovi concert in Pittsburgh. It was a great show and we had very good seats. These are a few of the pictures we took. :)

Leila's school had a special reading day at Barnes and Nobles. Some of the teachers read stories to them. They had service dogs there too that the kids were able to read stories too. Leila had a great time :)

Leila was star of the week in school and was able to bring in a pet.
