Our Little "School Girl"

(Sadie's school picture, 2.5 years old)

Yesterday, we had our parent-teacher conference at Sadie's daycare. We met with Stefanie and heard all about how Sadie was doing.

She is great! Some highlights were that she plays well with other kids and by herself, she is able to initiate play on her own, she likes trying new things, she loves to get messy and she loves being outside. We knew all of that about our girl!

We learned that she drinks from a regular cup with ease (at home, she still prefers a sippy or a straw cup) and that she uses a fork and spoon at school lunch (she doesn't always at home). Stefanie said that Sadie knows all the school routines by heart and will prompt the teachers if they forget something or deviate from the routine. Yup! She does that with us as well.

It was nice to hear that Sadie's teachers enjoy her as much as we do.

PS For anyone wondering about Sadie's portrait, I should give credit where credit is due. It was taken by Jennie Harriman, a photographer and art teacher here in the Upper Valley. Her website is fastanticalforest.com.
