In my
last post I explained why I was taking Lilly out of the kindergarten where she was and place her in my home district. Lilly has been there for 2 weeks. Almost immediately she seemed much calmer at home. The morning time anxiety that we had been seeing was greatly reduced. On the 2nd day she did decide that she had changed her mind and wanted to go back to school with me. Once she realized that was not a viable option, she moved forward and has been doing great!
We are helping her catch up with the curriculum. She is working very hard on learning her letters, manuscript-style, because this district places importance on it, whereas the last one did not. She also has tons more homework every night. Most importantly, she has made friends, and she is happy!
Lilly had a big day this past weekend when she attended
Camp Riverbend's Family Camp Day. My parents came to walk around with her, since Vinnie was working. Lilly went to the high ropes course, climbed the high wall, and then zip lined down. I was insanely proud of her when I found out! I am so grateful my parents were there to encourage her and cheer her on while I was doing my baking thing with the other families.
