Thea started a new class at daycare yesterday, the last room she'll be in before starting kindergarten in two years. The class is more focused on getting the kids ready for school, so reading and writing are stressed, and they're more strict.
The teachers said she did really well, and was only a little shy when the kids went outside to play. Makes sense; it's hard being the new kid on the playground! But I could tell she was a bit insecure about the change when, head in hands, she said solemnly over our celebratory pizza dinner, "I need to get more sleep."
Oh honey, I hear you.

Thea is an absolute DOLL!
I woke up this morning thinking that same thing... just a little more sleep. :)
Word (as the kids said 10 years ago).
She looks so grown up suddenly. *sniff* When did that happen?
I remember my first day of kindergarten. A girl was assigned to show me the ropes & she was shocked I couldn't read. She was like "just sound out the letters!" I burst into tears & she asked the teacher if she still had to hang out with me. Ah pre-schooling. What a jungle!
I know, it trips me out. Such a big girl.
Heather, I am completely floored that Thea can already write her name. It seems so young!
