I Love Fall & Stuff

Fall is the best season ever IMO! I haven't been out to an apple orchard yet, we'll see if we get the gumption to do it. I love the crisp smell in the air, the temperature, and humidity levels are bearable.

I switched Kayla to a different school this year and she really enjoys it! The school right by my house that she went to last year for kindergarten was a magnet that emphasizes Muong culture. For about 70% of the children, their first language was not English and the demographic was not diverse, so I switched her to a Montessori school three miles away with less ELL students and a more diverse demographic. Her teacher told me a couple weeks ago that she's never seen a child who started in a standard school adjust so well to a Montessori school, Kayla's got some skills!

Janice has given up eating fuzz off the couch, now her favorite thing is chicken ramon soup!

Kayla just loves to learn and socialize. She is gifted, if you ask me! But then, I might be a bit prejudiced, what with being Grandma, and all. I'm glad you found a school with more diversity. I also have a lot of respect for the Montessori schools. Go, Kayla! Good to hear Janice has changed her eating preferences to exclude furniture fuzz! Go, Janice!

Our girls just recently experienced the beef ramen noodles and now prefer those to the chicken flavor. I love this time of year too. Kayla is such a fun, outgoing and sweet little girl. I just got a kick out of her at the fall festival, she is such a conversationalist. Both of your girls are beautiful!
