First 100 Days of School

Congratulations, Quin!!! You've just completed your first 100 days of school :) Dad and I are so proud of you. Just a few months ago getting you to school was a real struggle... we'd have to wake you up early just to warm you up to the idea of school... play an episode of ninjago and sometimes even promises you little favors just to get you out the door. And once we got to school, you wouldn't let me go until you showered me with at least 10 kisses for "baon" on my cheeks, forehead and palms! Hahaha Now, after 100 days of school, you've adjusted so well and are enjoying school so much. It's actually really surprised me :) You usually wake up earlier than Ate Sam and get yourself dressed and ready for school. So independent! And by this time, your also already able to write your name "JOAQUIN" so well! When to think just a few months ago, it was a drag just to get you to trace your name! Haha Another thing that surprised me is how well you can read at this age! You're not even 5 yet but you can read more than just the basic sight words!!! So cool! You can easily read the first level books and I'm really excited at your progress and how far you'll go :) Having Ate Sam around was really helpful because she's challenging you to do all these things every time you guys play school or day care in her room :) So proud of you, Quin! I am sure you will continue to do work and perform well in school. At the parent-teacher conference last November, Mrs. Rynn said that you were a great student and that all your classmates really like you. I'm not surprised! :) Keep up the great work! :)mom
