Early Arts 3K

You have really loved your 3K year at Early Arts . . . and they have loved you! Just yesterday I dropped you off at school and your teachers pulled me aside to tell me what a (in their words) "sweet little girl" you are. They said you always have a smile on your face and that all of the kids in your class want to play with YOU. When you are missing the other kiddos always ask where you are.

As your mother, I cannot tell you how proud this makes me. Although you are outwardly beautiful, you are even more beautiful on the inside. I love you so much, and I am so thankful that you have become such a fine little lady. I hope that your kindness for others and a positive attitude never waver --- those things will take you a long way in life!! That is the lesson I am taking from you today.

Here is what I hope for myself, and hope for you my darling . . .

 

And now for some pictures with your Early Arts buddies . . .

Pants

Today, at 3 years and 11.5 months you wore your first pair of pants (adorned with elephants of course). Guess there's a first time for everything.

summer swimming

Your 3 year old summer was a swimming summer. You passed the test. You learn to swim underwater. You went off the diving board for the first time. And you even did free style! swim team next summer, and so it begins.

Favorite Book at 3.5 Years

You love the book Fairy Tales... Your favorite poem in the book (which is a collection of poems)....

If you see a fairy ring,
In a field of grass,
Very lightly step around,
Tiptoe as you pass,
Last night fairies frolicked there,
There sleeping somewhere near.

If you see a tiny fairy,
That is fast asleep,
Very lightly step around,
Do not make a peep,
And be sure you never tell,
Or you'll break the fairy spell.

Thank YOU for being my fairy. You see to bring magic everywhere you go. You force me to slow down, to enjoy myents with you. You wake up every day with a smile on your face and in your heart. Every day is a good day to you. Its magical and I love watching you.
