Conferences

Parent-Teacher conferences were this week.

The dread I used to feel for my conference returned slightly. You know, the incessant prayer that takes place while you wait in the hall for your mom to come out of the conference? God will surely treat you well and somehow convince your teacher not to comment on any previous negative behaviors of yours...

Well, there's no need for dread for these little girls this year. Here are their glowing reviews, in a nutshell.


Olivia: 2nd Grade. Mrs. Barber. 

Olivia has a great personality. She is very energetic and smart. She is reading at a 4th grade level. She sometimes talks too much. (No way). She apologizes sincerely when she is off task. She is creative and caring. Talks openly about breastfeeding. (Great).


Sophie: The Big K. Mrs. Emary.

Sophie is an individual. She thinks about things deeply. Her hearing was checked as it was questionable if she could, in fact, hear...since she often seems to not acknowledge she's a member of this outside world. She passed the hearing test. Sophie CAN follow directions but sometimes chooses not to. When Sophie is asked about not following directions and coloring the sheet her own way she states, "I just thought it'd look better this way." Sophie is intelligent, according to her teacher. She is creative and imaginative. (No way). She reportedly, does not act like a dog at school. This was surprising, in a good way. She is a "delight" to have in class and is excelling in every area.

Eli: Year One. 4 months. Mom.

Rocking it.
Sleeps like a champ.
Eats like a champ.
Weighs in like a champ at 15 lbs.

A boom bada bam da bam.

How could I ask for more?
