Only took 11 days!!!!!
Only 11 days for what you might ask...Well let me tell you. My little Vivien started kindergarten on Aug (Wed.). She seems to be doing really well and the 1st full week of school she brings home her "CODE OF CONDUCT" sheet for the parents to look at and for us to sign it. I was looking over Vivien's sheet and she got some really good marks for the 1st full week of school.
Also they get a grade on there BIBLE verse that they have to say on Friday's in front of the class. She got the highest grade you can get. That would be an "O" for outstanding...Is able to recite the verse w/out any help from the teacher.
How proud am I of my baby girl. VERY,VERY,VERY PROUD!!!!!
So, here I am thinking that maybe, just maybe she has matured a little since she is in "BIG" school now. "WRONG", "WRONG" & "WRONG AGAIN", on Wed. We are on our way to get in the car and like I do every day, get her folder out of her backpack to see her papers and the "smiley face stamp" on the square for the day. I open the folder and what do I see...NOT as smiley face!!!! When they get there name on the board the teacher will write down what was going on. Seems my little one was having trouble with
"kindness & self-control" I was so disappointed. I asked her what had happened and so that night sat down and wrote Mrs. Hensley a note.
Thurs. On our way to school in the morning we are having a talk about how she needs to be kind and use self-control today. She is like, o.k. momma I will, I promise!!
When I pick her up that afternoon, I get the folder and she has a smiley face for the day!!
However...There is a pink note from the teacher to me. Vivien seems to like to get neg. Attention, just as long as it is some kind of attention.
Could this be because she is an only child and has not had to compete for my attention. HUM....Everyone at the school says that it is normal "learning" period for all the students. I'm still concerned, I will just wait and see what happens in the weeks to come and go from there. She is a sweet little girl (when she wants to be), I don't know what goes through that little head of hers sometimes.
I am working at home with her on the way we talk to people, it is party my fault because I have been stressed out and quit to jump on her when I should count to 10 and then approach the subject. This school year will be a learning experience for the both of us. All I can say is that I have been doing A LOT of praying. God always gives me an answer, sometimes I don't always like the answer I get, but...That is not for me to decide.
I just try my best to be a good mom and teach her what is right and wrong!!
