Naomi's First Week of School

Hello All,
Naomi has completed her first week of school. She has learned that school is not all about learning abc's and 123's but also about listening and learning to follow directions. Naomi has met some cool kids that are in her class. She sits next to a boy named Garrett who reminds Chris of his brother.

He is so cute and quiet. I was able to spend Tues. with Naomi and was able to see some of the things that she will do in her classroom. Her teacher is really awesome. She sings alot and is good at getting the attention of the children. She is stern when she needs to be and also kind at the same time. Chris and I like her alot. Naomi likes her also. Naomi really likes art class and music class and she has had gym but so far she tells me her favorite part of the day is RECESS of coarse. Who doesn't like recess the best. =)

She is taking cold lunch do the her picky eating habbits and she has been coming home w/ a lot of food after school, so we have talked to her about the importants of eating all your lunch or more than just a 1/2 a sandwhich any way.

Today was my first day of dropping her off and leaving her there. It was difficult but she kissed me and walked up the sidewalk and then she turned around and waved at me. So it made me feel a little better. It is amazing how well the house runs w/ 1 child out of the picture. It is amazing the quiet times that we have and I got all my laundry done, swept the livingroom, kitchen and dining room all in one day. =) I really miss Naomi though but I know she is having great time. I have been reading alot of books to Noah and Nathanael has been napping alot since we have to pick up Naomi by 3:00 he naps now at about 11am since he usually sleeps for 3 hours and today I had to wake him up. Noah and I are enjoying books and cartoons together and he has been doing really well at cleaning up his own toys now also.

Tonight he starts Karate and so I am sure you will see a picture soon of him in his Karate class or his uniform anyway. I will let you all know how Karate went.

God Bless,
Amy
