Today was Montessori day. I was a little nervous going today, as last week was a little disappointing. . . see below . . .
I took this picture of her just as we were heading out the door.
For those of you who we have not told about the name game at Montessori, here's a brief explanation: it occurs during circle time, and the teacher and parents sing a little song ("I wonder what your name is, I wonder if you know . . . your name is Charlotte! Hello, hello, hello) - when the child's name is called they get to go up to the teacher and take a laminated name tag and place it on a Velcro board for all to see. Last week, after 6 weeks at Montessori, Charlotte still didn't have a name tag made for her, so I brought this to the teacher's attention (not entirely sure how she didn't realize this herself) and happily, this week Charlotte had her very own name tag. When her name was called, she proudly stepped forward and took her name tag from the teacher (saying "ites", which translates to "thanks" when receiving it) and scurried over to the board to place it on the Velcro strip. She couldn't have been more pleased with herself, and walked back to me beaming and clapping. So sweet.

Kate,
Wonderful news. You were right it was important to follow-up and get this set up for Charlotte. I love the picture as well.
Love you, Mum
Oh my -- she looks so grown up and soooo adorable! I am also relieved and happy that all went well at the class. I wish I could have been there. Love and kisses to you and Charlotte.
