Our Kids

We are attending a four day workshop. Each day a different professional comes in and discusses her area of expertise and entertains the kids for 30 min, then they stay around to answer any questions you may have.  The classes are held in a huge room and it is filled with all sorts of developmental toys.  Today the theme was music and movement, a music therapist entertained us and the kids with songs and ideas of how we can use music in our everyday lives to help us provide structure to our environments.  After this it was time for free play.

I was happily playing with the girls when Lela decided she had to go pee.  Piper told me that she would like to stay so I took Lela and left her with the lady in charge.  When I returned she was still playing in the same spot by herself with the alphabet letters.  The lady in charge was playing with her and when I went over to check on her I told Piper it was time to go and change her diaper.  Piper put down her letters and started to follow me, the lady in charge said, “that is one mellow kid.”  I just laughed, after all she was right.
