The first conference

We had Nolan's first preschool conference today.  We weren't really sure what to expect - and I think it exceeded our expectations!  His preschool teacher said that Nolan was a little sad the first 2 weeks of school, crying at times and saying he missed his mom and dad.  Since then she said he has done fantastic, and he's a joy to have in class.  They reviewed his letter and number progress with us, as well as pictures he's drawn and the progress he's made writing his name.  Both teachers said that Nolan is a very nice boy, that he takes time to play with kids who aren't playing with others, and is the kid that everyone wants to be friends with - whew!  I speak for both Adam and I when I say we are proud of him.  The only areas he needs to work on are cutting and holding his pencil more firmly.  Those are easy things to help him with!

When we left the conference both Adam and I said that when we have Kale's first conference in two years it will probably sound something like this: "Kale is a very spirited child with a lot of energy." We both think it will be a good thing that Kale turns 5 when preschool starts - he needs the extra year:)
