Off to School You Go

It was Freja's first day of school. She's attending the Preschool of the Arts. It's a great school that uses the Reggio Emilia approach to teaching. A method we feel is ideally suited to her personality.



I'm sure it's going to be a big adjustment for her. First we moved to a new city, then she began school and then I head back to the old house for about a month to wrap things up. I hope she handles it as well as a 3 year old can.



The staff of the really has impressed us with how much they're willing to be flexible and understanding of our circumstances. First in allowing her to begin late, and then allowing us to add afternoon daycare for the month that I am gone. They also seemed to be able to integrate Freja into the class even though she's so new to the experience.

Of course, after only her first week we were called because she'd stuck a wad of tissue up her nose and couldn't get it out... oh brother.
