So tonight we had Parents Night at Kindie, Parents Night for a 2 year old.... I never would have thought it, until I became a Dad, then what can I say, I've been looking forward to it with excitement and trepidation.
Trepidation I guess because I still remember parents night when I was a kid and waiting on Mum & Dad coming home from the school and giving us a review of the discussions... they were never terrible but there was certainly (on my part at least) a chunk of well he could try harder in some area's... or If only he'd study and so on, non of which conducive to a relaxing night, still I did ok.
Surely kindie reports would be different, well as it turns out being the one on the other side of the table is good for a start but it's also really cool hearing someone else tell you how great your wee girl is, who doesn't love that!
So turns out she's settling into the new room with some bigger kids, really getting out there in the play area and pushing the boundaries. Now I take Emily to the park all the time and she's obsessed with the swings, after that she loves climbing up ladders to get to a slide and if it's possible to go down backwards or on her tummy well that's cool. So when they say pushing boundaries i think they may well mean she needs a safety net soon!
she's smart, understands what your say, uses words all the time you think where did that come from and how did you use it in the right way... for instance Actually... she's really fond of Actually... as well as 'You go girl!' or lately (and it's my fault) deal.. make you a deal....
