This year we are doing something a little different, we are involved in a neighborhood group preschool. There are Six moms and six kids, three boys and three girls. Each mother gets the kids two times a week every six weeks. I have already taken my turn for the first go-round, and I really enjoyed being the teacher! I look forward to playing a bigger part of her schooling this year.
This time of year I recall one of my favorite things growing up to do from year to year was to take my current school pictures home and hold it up to my previous years pic. and compare and make note of the growing changes I had made in the past years time: The year my nose grew a few inches, the first year my blond hair looked drab and dark , then the following year it was bright blond again thanks to a personal friend of mine we'll just call El' Bleach-o. I had always delighted seeing my changes and knowing that I was growing up.
So this year I thought I would make such a comparison to my Issy. This years first day to last years first day:
It seems more than just Isabell has made some changes.
I guess Being on the mom end of this whole yearly comparison process is a little more bittersweet than TOTALLY satisfying.
Now If I could only do some intervening comparisons with Issy with what it looks like when I dress her and when she dresses herself.
But alas, i suppose I get a pretty big kick out of seeing what she can come up with!
