New Beginnings




My sweet little angel is leaving the two-year old room and heading over to the big threes, skipping the younger three year old room. She starts her new class on Monday. I went to her open house last night to meet her new teacher, see the class, and whatnot. I love her teacher. She's been working there since Lo started, and she's seen Lo go from having her dark brown/black rocker-style hair that stood straight up to her now California blonde look. Lo knows her and loves her so it should be a good transition.

There will be a few things that are different. 1 - no more sippie cups. She can bring in water bottles, juice boxes, capri suns or whatever, but no more sippie cups. 2 - although they will still play, it won't be all fun and games. Ms. Jen said that the first day of class they learn to trace their names. This class is big on learning and prepping the kids for VPK (voluntary pre-kindergarten). So Lo will learn to write her letters, numbers, draw shapes, and she'll know the months and whatnot. Excited about it. Also, in September they have a karate instructor come in and give all the kids a free class. Then I can sign her up and she'll have karate classes on Fridays during school. Of course, the parents are invited to come and watch the changing of the belts and that ceremony where the kids break the wood or whatever. So excited about that.

Last weekend I took Lo to my sister's and we had a little photoshoot on the beach. It was a "mess the dress" kind of thing. Lo was growing out of her flowergirl dress so we were just having fun, and the pictures look amazing!
