Nathan's Report Card and My first Parent/Teacher Conference

It was no surprise that Nathan got a good report card. He loves school, his teachers and his classmates.

I was a little concerned about the few areas that he did not receive proficient marks in, but learned today that those are items the class is still working on or have not covered yet, so nothing to be concerned about.

Nathan does very well in all his social interactions both with teachers and classmates. He is polite and follows directions and plays with everything. Although his favorite activities appear to be the housekeeping section and blocks, he does play at every section and participates in all the activities that are available to him. The teachers think this is terrific, I think it is because he has a short attention span.

I learned a lot from my meeting with his teachers. Nathan is right on target, and some of the concerns I had were eased. Some behaviors I had concerns about appear to be normal for his age group. Nathan is growing and developing beautifully and is doing very well at this school. His teachers and all the teachers at the school are absolutely wonderful, caring and compassionate people.

No pictures from the weekend, and unfortunately our trip to Massachusettes to see Auntie Mary, Mr. Rob and Juliet had to be posponed. Nathan had pink eye last Thursday and Sela got it over the weekend. We just weren't in the picture taking mood. I am sure we will make up for it next weekend when we have a playdate with Anne's kids John, Luke and Grace.

Bubie and PopPop left for Arizona last Friday and the kids miss them already!!

Finally, Bubie Ruby called me in a panic this morning because she thought she had forgotten my birthday! Her oldest grandchild - how could she forget? She was very relieved however when I informed her that she had the wrong month. :)
