The Artemis rocket ship is set to land tonight around 8 PM, returning from outer space after traveling around the Moon … the first time NASA has sent humans this far in over 50 years, and the furthest humans have ever been from Earth. A truly historic moment.

We’ll be watching with excitement and enthusiasm. I hope you get a chance to watch it too, Ava. Have a great weekend!

A small touch of Easter today. Wishing you a day filled with warmth and simple joys

I saw your first semester Grade 9 report card.

I just want you to know that I am so proud of you!

Geography at 90%. English at 87%. That’s strong. It tells me you’re capable, you think well, and you can express your ideas clearly. Your teachers also mentioned that you’ve been growing and improving, and that matters a lot 🙂

What stood out to me the most wasn’t just the grades though. One of your teachers said you help make the classroom a more positive place and include others. That says a lot about the kind of person you’re becoming.

Math looks like it was tougher this semester. That’s okay. A lot of people struggle with math in Grade 9. It’s a big jump from elementary school. What matters is that your teacher noticed you improving because of effort and willingness to learn. That’s the part that actually predicts success later.

If I could sit down with you right now, here’s what I would tell you:

You’re clearly smart.
You’re capable of doing really well.
Don’t let one hard subject make you doubt yourself.
And keep being kind to people … that will take you further than any mark on a report card.

High school is the start of figuring out who you are and what you’re good at. You don’t have to have everything figured out right now.

I just want you to know that I see you trying, and it matters to me.

I want you to know something that hasn’t changed and won’t change:

I Love You and I’m proud of you!

Tata xoxo

Today isn’t just about cards or chocolates. It’s a reminder to appreciate the people who care about us and to be kind to ourselves too.

Ava, I hope you always know your worth, choose friends who treat you well, and never settle for less than respect. You deserve kindness, honesty, and laughter in your life … not just today, but every day.

Sending you love and wishing you a day that makes you smile.

Love,
Tata

I found this cool video that I want to share. Enjoy!

This song has been stuck in my head the past few days, so I wanted to share it.

I had a little fun in the kitchen and turned an apple into a swan. It was a hit! 🍎🦢
