Kindergarten

A major milestone in Abby's life was reached this month when she started kindergarten.  Although she was in preschool for two years, kindergarten is a whole different ballgame.  She calls it "real" school.  The hardest adjustment was no nap.  During preschool she had a nap and for our sanity, we continued naps throughout the summer.  So the first couple of weeks was really rough on Abby because of the change.  As a result, she had a few days of behavior notes, but over the last two weeks, her behavior has leveled out as she adjusted to this new schedule.

On a positive note, Abby loves the library.  Each day, she has the opportunity to check out a new book and now they have started Accelerated Reader tests.  On the first three tests, she did not earn any points.  However, she is on a role now and earns points every day. 

She has also mastered several sight words and loves math.  In fact, she has determined that she wants to do math everyday!!!  I will remind her of this comment once the high school years hit!!!  It is hard to believe that our little girl is in school.  Her life is generally scheduled around her social agenda, so school is the perfect place for her.  However, she will have to do her socializing at appropriate times!
