Now this girl deserves a post! We are so proud of Whitney. She is just blossoming at school. It is so fun to watch her enthusiasm for learning. She continues to impress us with her math skills and reading. Her teacher just raved about her at her school conference. Once again, since this is my blog, I get to brag all I want. So hear it goes!
I am so happy with Whitney's teacher because she was not only able to articulate how Whitney was doing in school (which is right on track), but in just a few short months she really had observed and was impressed with Whitney's character. She said that most kids are selective about who they sit next to on the rug because they never know when they may be paired up to the person to their left. But Whitney does not show any discrimination and is happy and will to work with anyone. A common trait for a 6 year old is that when their friend is talking they can't wait for them to stop so they can say what is on their mind. She said Whitney listens carefully, and may even ask them a question before revealing her thoughts. What a grown up little girl! She works well in groups and asks her peers for help when she needs it. Her teacher said she would have a classroom full of Whitneys if she could!
Whitney continues to be the ring leader of our little trio. She plays so patiently with Colin and helps look after Lauren when I am in another room or upstairs. She is an excellent role model for her siblings.
Her favorite things continue to be legos and crafts. These activities keep her happy for hours!
Whitney we are so lucky to call you ours! You are a polite, thoughtful, funny and creative girl! We love you!
