Parent Teacher Conference

I just wanted to record what Harrison's teacher Mrs. Craig said about him at his Parent Teacher Conference yesterday.  We love our preschool and the teachers and other parents. Harrison loves to go and does great at everything except for occasionally acting out when things don't go his way. Of course.

"Harrison is an enthusiastic, outgoing, and confident student in our classroom.  He shows strong pre-reading and pre-math skills. His fine motor and gross motor skills are excellent. He is very interested in learning while in school. Harrison is engaged at circle time and usually has something meaningful to contribute to our conversation.  Harrison has many friends in our class is is often seen playing with Violet and Vilem.  He is very creative and verbal.  Harrison creates wonderful play scenarios. Sometimes Harrison has a difficult time understanding the rights of others.  At times, it is difficult fr Harrison to share a toy or take turns with a prized possession. He is very verbal and we will continue to help Harrison practice using his words to negotiate situations. Harrison greets me daily with a warm hug.  He is a very warm and loving child. I look forward to watching Harrison grow in many ways over the course of this year at preschool."

YAY Harrison! You sure are awesome.

We went to the zoo today

Lately it's felt like winter WAY too early. However today temps were in the 60s so we met up with Alissa wheeler and crew at the zoo. Harrison and emmaline were in heaven and mommy and daddy were thrilled to talk (commiserate?) a little politics with great friends. Fantastic Saturday!
