Well, our little girl has been off to "school" for a little over a month now. (I know, I know, you can all be mad at me for not updating the blog in FOREVER!) She started in a program for a half-day one day a week, called Children's Praise N Rainbows. I was a little apprehensive about how she would do in a new, larger group of kids, and being left there by Mommy (plus being picked up about an hour after she normally lays down for a nap), but she has been doing PHENOMENAL! She has not shed a single tear when being dropped off...not one! And when she gets home, yes, she is VERY tired, but she still has been taking a good (later) nap in the afternoon after school.
My favorite thing that she does, that is school-related, is that every time you ask her, "Isabel, do you have school today?", she responds "Uh-huh!" and then when you ask "What do you get to bring to school?" she says, without fail, "Bah-pah!" (backpack). How adorable is that?
Here are two photos of her before her second day. The first day she was being anti-photo, but I figured we would try again the next week, and she cooperated QUITE well!
