I had conferences with Annabelle’s and Gwyneth’s teachers this past week. They are both excelling in school and have made many new friends. 

Gwyneth’s teacher gave me a big laugh. She said that Gwyneth is very social and friendly and is doing well with her letters and colors. Where she really excels is Math. She is testing at a 1st grade level for Math skills and she’s only three. Now I’m not trying to brag, although I’m super proud of her, I just have to laugh because there has to be something in the genes. There are a lot of numbers-oriented people in this family and this is the toddler who slept with a calculator! Maybe all those finance meetings while I was pregnant with her rubbed off??

Annabelle’s teacher has told us she is very creative and since I’m not the least bit I signed her up for the art class at the rec center. (I can help Gwyneth with Math, but I can’t offer much to Annabelle in the arts). This was the first time I dropped her off for a class and left. There are other kids in the class, they are just hidden by the door. Don’t worry – I didn’t leave her there all alone. 

She seems so grown up, but still so little at the same time. How is that even possible?!?!
