Stalking the Stacks with Library Lil
*Stalking the Stacks with Library Lil* |
2008-08-21 Today we took the ladies for their kindergarten assessment (A short assessment to let the teacher know what she's dealing with this year). If it seems strange to you that I should be writing about how my *babies* went to a school and then proceeded to count (to forty-10 for Emily) and say the alphabet (in the case of Amy getting frustrated that the teacher would DARE suggest she didn't know her letters), imagine how I feel.On one level, I was so proud I could have burst. I have polite (at least to the outside world) young ladies who can count and write and identify letters. They were excited about the classroom and all the things in it. September 2 is the first day of school. If today is any indication, I'll be fine until I hit the corner that I'll have to turn on the way home, at which point I'll burst into tears. Proud for them tears, Sad for me tears. Tears that tell how fast time flies. Tears that make me long for cuddling their pre-walking, pre-talking roly poly bodies. Seriously, when did this happen, when did they get so big? |
