Dazzling Dolphin

Kate and Wright are doing great at their new school! I was so worried about them going 4 days/week for longer days, but they have adjusted so well. They adore their teachers and talk about their friends all the time. It is so sweet to see how all the kids greet each other in the mornings!

In class they are very aware of each other, but are starting to branch out more. Kate is always more concerned about Wright following directions according to the teachers. If they are all cleaning up they said that she would stop cleaning up to go and make sure Wright was...that has gotten better. They like to nap beside each other of course, but don't necessarily do their crafts beside each other.

They both enjoy circle time and Kate likes to answer all the questions.  Wright seems to enjoy his time in the middle of the circle doing his dance! I love the school and their teachers. I can tell that they genuinely care for Kate and Wright which makes me so at ease.

We of course are having our share of adjustments...Kate does not like to use the bathroom at school and holds it until early afternoon so we are working on that. She does great at home and isn't having accidents, but is not quite as comfortable. This week she asked her teacher if Wright could go in and sit by her. They said he pulled up a chair and they carried on a conversation until she went. I love how close they are and that they have each other!!

So, the Dazzling Dolphin is recognition in their class for going above and beyond and Kate received it today! While on the playground one of their friends was sad because they didn't have a ball to play with. Kate stopped what she was doing and went to find a ball and took it to her sad friend.  We are so proud of her!
