The girls and I had a BLAST playing school today. And, oh, how it reminded me how much work it is to set up even ONE class. Yikes! : ) Anyway, we had many "students" who weren't called upon all the time, of course, as it is in real class. There was writing time and centers and snack and recess and drawing and books on tape. Very fun! Leia Rose couldn't WAIT to do this! And I think Annie ate two whole apples during "school." Ha! ( As a result of "Important Conversation #2," Oma suggested that we play school in order to demonstrate how to respectfully raise ones hand and respond to questions. Worked like a charm.)
My sweet babies have grown into beautiful women! This is their story (& mine as well). My blog exists in honor of the late Karin Faulkner who taught me how. Enjoy the journey through Leia's & Annie's youth.
