Anyway, you deserve an update. A tiny list post, at least...
- M is 2! She is so smart. Loves to learn. She speaks very clearly, makes sentences too long for her age, has an extensive vocabulary, counts to 20, knows the alphabet, the geometric figures, animals... You name it! She's very social. I'm so proud of her...
- M received the "RE: Start your Tantrums at 2" memo on her birthday. Thank goodness we had her birthday the day before. Everyone had a blast, specially her. The following morning? Let's just say she gave us proof that the "Terrible Twos" are not a myth.
- We have decided to homeschool her. I am a teacher, trained to teach in traditional schools, who has a business that serves the traditional educational system, and after 19 years of experience I just think there's got to be a better way. (BTW, I started my business before graduating college. Im not that old. Well, subtract 5 years from whatever "that" is...)
- M is ready for potty training. Let's just say we haven't gotten around it. Now that I'll be able to stay at home more often (I stay with her until 2:00 every day, but now I'll be able to stay the whole day) I'll do the three day approach everyone is talking about. Any tips you can share will be very much appreciated.
- After exactly two years in business, we have closed down our 2nd location described on my most popular post. :o( Last Tuesday was our last day open. The economy sucks... We gave everyone the bad news on Wednesday and all the teachers were relocated to the existing location. However, I'm actually at peace with closing it down. This will allow more time to spend with my daughter, less stress because I will be running only one location and more energy for homeschooling. And I'm already enjoying the benefits. I stayed home with M Thursday and Friday. Feels good to have that freedom again. :o)
