First Parent Teacher Conference

I'm writing this post after the fact.  It's actually November 18 as I write this, but I'll change the post to October 28.

October 28, 2014 would be the date of my first ever parent-teacher conference as a parent.  I was giddy excited about the 15 minutes I would have with Lil Bit's teacher and the insight into a world I could not see.

Her teacher, kind as she is, didn't say anything bad about her.  Skilled in the art of speech, anything she would have said that could have been negative would have been skewed in such a way that it would come out as a compliment and I would have thanked her for it.

I do know that her teacher said that my little miss is a blessing to have in the classroom and that all the kids are very close.  She behaves well and has a little bit of a leader in her.  She's also an excellent cutter with scissors (egads) and surprisingly uses her right hand to cut.  The numbers that she can identify are 3, 8, and 10.  She can identify all shapes but has trouble with rectangles and squares (and really, I get that, those can be hard).

So, as far as firsts go, that one was an absolute delight!
