I am so happy to see March arrive. February seemed like such a long month this year. Only 25 more days until moving day. We are tying up loose ends and continuing to pack. Every day I drive through our current neighborhood I am thankful that the number of days we have to drive through this particular neighborhood are numbered. Bill said on the way to church yesterday morning that we only had three more Sundays to drive that way to church.
God has blessed my life so much. Even in this somewhat stressful time of moving, I am so in awe at how wonderful my life is. I could not ask for anything more in my life. Getting ready to move into this house with Bill and the girls is so exciting. I love how excited Lauren and Allison are about moving. I love seeing the joy and excitement in their eyes.
I met with Lauren's preschool teacher last week for a conference to talk about Kindergarten readiness. I was very pleased to hear what her teacher said about her. A few of her comments were,
- well liked by her classmates
- leads and follows (we knew she could lead, but wasn't sure about the following part) :)
- uses manners
- easily corrected
- learns to find joy in everything (my favorite)
- always positive
My one concern about Lauren is her activity level. While she can sit still and focus and attend to any number of activities, she still loves to be moving. And she is going to be one of, if not the youngest in her class. Yet her teacher assured me that she is more than ready for Kindergarten. I knew that, but it was nice to hear from her teacher.
On a different note, I think Allison may be trying to give up her nap. Some days she decides she is not going to go to sleep at nap time. When she does nap, she is staying up until 9:00 or 10:00 and sometimes later. She has a hard time in the evenings if she doesn't nap though. I'm not sure I'm quite ready to let her give up the nap completely. Maybe she will just nap every other day or every three days. We'll see.

Lauren was telling me about her new house this past Sunday. I told her I'm going to come see her new room when she moves in. She seemed excited about that! :)
I completely understand your concerns about Kindergarten readiness, as well as the affirmation from her current teacher. I am thankful for the positive feedback you got, and I'm sure Lauren will do great!
