TODAY WAS ARTUROS PARENT TEACHER CONFERENCE (I THOUGHT IT WAS WIERD HE'S I HEADSTART). ANYWAYS IT WAS COOL TO SEE HOW MUCH PROGRESS HE HAS MADE IN JUST THE FEW MONTHS THAT HE HAS BEEN ATTENDING SCHOOL. THEY SHOWED US DRAWING AND PAINTINGS AND WRIGHTING SAMPLES. OF COURSE IN THE BEGINGIN THERE WAS ALOT OF LINES AND SWIRLS AND SCRIBBLES. BUT AS HE HAS PROGRESSED YOU CAN TELL HE IS TRYING NEW THINGS. THE NEWER DRAWINGS WERE CUTE. HE HAS STARTED TRYING TO DRAW STICK FIGURES. HE EVEN DREW A PAIR OF GLASSES ON A PICTURE HE DREW OF BENITO. THEY ALSO DO A JOURNAL, HE BASICALLY DRAWS AND THEN THE TEACHER SITS DOWN AND ASK'S HIM ABOUT WHAT HE DREW. THIS IS THE PART IN THE CONFERENCE THAT I COULD'NT HELP BUT LAUGH. IT WAS LIKE HE JUST STARTED RAMBLING ON ABOUT EVERYONE AT HOME. HE DREW THE BIG CIRCLE WITH A BOX IN IT, THAT WAS DADDY AT "HIS TRUCK WORK" HE DREW THIS TALL (THE LINES WERE VERY THIN SO I THINK IT WAS SUPOSSED TO BE SKINNY) STICK FIGURE WITH LIKE A CIRLE ON IT. THATS "JIMMY HE CANT RIDE THE BUS BECAUSE HE IN TROUBLE SO HE HAS TO RIDE THE VAN" WOW WHEN YOU THINK THEY ARE PLAYING WHILE YOU ARE DISCUSSING WHAT THE OLDER SIBLING DID WRONG WITH SAID OLDER SIBLING, APARENTLY THEY ARNT JUST PLAYING. THEN THERE WAS A STICK FIGURE WITH THIS LINES STICKN OUT OF THE HEAD AND IT WAS ON THIS RECTANGLE SHAPED THING REALLY WASNT SURE WHAT TAHT WAS, "THATS JAZZY O WELL JASMINE RIDEING HER SCOOTER SEE SHE HAS HER BRAID TAILLY TAIL" THEN THERE WAS THIS SMALL LITTLE FIGURE IN THE CORNER "THATS MY ISABELLA, SHE MINE BUT MOMMY SAYS I HAVE TO SHARE HER" THEN THAT LAST THING WAS THIS BIG BLOB OF CIRLCE AND IN THE CORNER "THATS MY MOMMY, I LOVE MY MOMMY" (TEAR DROP) NOW I DONT WEATHER TO BE OFFENDED BY THE FACT THAT I WAS THE BIG BLOB B UT O WELL. I GUESS THE IMPORTANT LESSEN HERE IS TO BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU SAY AROUND YOUR 3 YEAR OLD BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT HE WILL DRAW IN HIS JOURNAL.
OVER ALL I AM VERY PROUD OF HIM. HE HAS MADE SO MUCH PROGRESS SINCE AUGUST. HE IS LIKE A TOTALLY DIFFERNT KID. AND IT HAS TAKEN ALOT OF HARD WORK(SINCE WE GOT HIME) TO MAKE HIM FEEL SAFE AND SECURE. AND SEEING THOSE WORDS "I LOVE MY MOMMY" MEAN A LOT COMMING FROM HIM. I OFTEN WONDER IF I AM GIVING HIM ENOUGH LOVE AND ATTENTION. IN THIS FAMILY GIVING EACH KID ENOUGH ATTENTION CAN BE A BIG CHALLANGE. BUT I GUESS I AM DOING SOMETHING RIGHT. I AM GALD HE IS NOW DOING SO MUCH BETTER BOTH IN SCHOOL AND AT HOME. HE HAS AWSOME TEACHER WHO TAKE THE TIME TO GIVE EACH OF THIER STUDENTS THE INDIVIDUAL CARE THEY NEED.
PS. THE OLDER KIDS ALSO HAD THIER CONFERENCES RECENTLY, THEY ARE ALL DOING GREAT. BENITO GOT HONOR ROLL, NO SURPRISE THERE, JASMINE IS DOING WELL HERSELF (IF THEY GAVE HONOR ROLL TO 2ND GRADE SHE WOULD HAVE GOTTEN IT TOO) JAMES IS IMPROVING ALOT, HE IS A VERY SMART LITTLE BOY HE JUST DOESNT APPLY HIMSLEF. BUT OVERALL IM LUCKY BECAUSE ALL OF MY KIDS ARE DOING RALLY WELL IN SCHOOL
