Lillian had Meet the Teacher this morning. Lillian was so excited to go to school this morning to meet Mrs. Sweeden. We got to school a little early because I wanted her to see all the changes the school had done over the summer- new carpet and paint. The school looked great and so refreshing! I could tell all the teachers had worked hard on their classrooms and they all looked so colorful, friendly and inviting. Way to go St. Francis!
Lillian walked right into her old classroom to see Mrs. Lee. Everyone couldn't get over how tall Lillian had gotten over the summer and of course how Lydia had grown too. Lydia enjoyed Mrs. Lee's classroom too (Lillian's teacher from last year) and didn't want to leave. That was tantrum #1!
We checked in and made sure all of Lillian's records were up to date and then walked around for a little while. I was getting papers left and right and of course, Lydia wanted her own papers to tear and shred. Then, she was eating the papers! I had to take them away and that was tantrum #2!
We finally made it to Mrs. Sweeden's classroom and Lillian proudly walked in all be herself. She started playing with all the toys and talked to her buddy from last year, Katie. She also has two other kiddos she knew from last year in her classroom this year.
There are 12 kiddos in her class- 7 boys and 5 girls. It is a nice mixture. She was excited to see all of her friends and see how their summer was. Mrs. Sweeden said they would be cooking a lot this year and Lillian is thrilled! She can't wait to be the chef! So, we just enjoyed the classroom and then I needed to fill out additional paperwork and listen to the teacher. Lydia didn't like this part because she wanted to eat the pencil and I wouldn't give it to her. And it was tantrum #3!
I had another mom help me out while I could finish everything for Lillian. We got it all complete and then it was time to leave. Do you see what is coming next? That was tantrum #4!
And this all happened in.... 15 minutes!
