Kindergarten Registration

My baby girl is now registered for Kindergarten. That's crazy! She was just born the other day, wasn't she?
She's very excited to be going. I know she'll love it and it will be nice for Rob to get every day until 3pm to do his work instead of trying to do it all with a small child following him around saying "What are you doing Daddy? What are you doing? Why? Why are you doing it that way? Wanna see what I can do Daddy? Daddy. Daddy. Daddy. DADDDDYY!!!!!! I'm talking to you Daddy!" (With hand on her hip).

When they bring them in to register in the spring before they start school they test them on a number of different skill sets and a few weeks later the parents are mailed the results. We got ours back and found that she score very high in clear speech and vocabulary to which we were like "Well yeah. The child never stops talking. Of course she does it well." I kid you not, as I type RIGHT NOW she is rattling on about what the word "pizazz" means and how you would use it in a sentence. (Of-course I'm being a super attentive mother nodding my head and saying "Yeah. Yeah. Cool honey." while tuning her out completely.)

The things they said she needs work on make sense for the most part too. I think she'll do well and like all of the new things she will learn.


Yep. I think kindergarten will be a good thing for everyone.
