Lily's Class

Last week, the directors at the Mommy Morning Out program asked us if we minded if they moved Lily up a classroom level. Because her birthday falls in October, she misses the date cut-off by just a few weeks so she was in the "older 2's" classroom which had kids who turn 3 before December 31 in it. The directors said they thought Lily would do well in the class with other 3-year-olds, so we agreed to let her move up. This past Monday was her first day in the new room, and she did great. She was so excited telling me about her new class. She probably asked me 5 times that night "Do you know what classroom I go to today?" I would respond "which one?" and she would excitedly say "Ms Jodi's classroom!" One time I even said "Ms Jodi's class!" and she said "No Mommy, not Ms Jodi's class. It's Ms Jodi's classroom." Sorry, my mistake. They made a scarecrow that she told Ryan all about, and she is simply having a blast there. She can't wait to go back tomorrow. She even told both of us this morning "I get to go to school tomorrow." I love seeing her this excited!

On a related note, we discovered that some of her friends from last year are in this class. She specifically mentioned she was glad to see a little boy named Caleb. I will never forget last year Lily telling us about her classmates; she got a serious look on her face and said Caleb "is very, very, very nice." He better still be nice to her!
