i wondered all day how she would be when i picked her up this afternoon. would she be quiet? she tends to not want to talk about things unless it's on her terms. i brought her some orange juice and chocolate chip cookies because i knew she'd be hungry. she had a bag of goodies from her teacher that she eagerly showed mykah. and she said "it was good!" she told us that she went to art and that the little girl that sits next to her, mary hellen, followed her around all day long. she talked about that several times and even brought up once that she "tried to get away from her." i kind of chuckled, but tried to explain to her about being a leader and that maybe mary hellen was scared and saw that karsyn wasn't scared so she wanted to be with her and be her friend.
she said they got to go on the playground twice and that she did everything by herself all day. i had several talks with her prior about it being okay to ask for help. she's VERY independent. always has been. and even if she can't do something, she won't ask for help. so i wanted to make sure she knew that it was ok to do so. she was very proud to announce that she was able to open her water and her chips all by herself at lunchtime.
seems like a successful day to me. and she's more than ready to go back tomorrow. she was hyper all evening and didn't fall asleep as quickly as i had imagined. my favorite part was when she came to me not too long after we got home and said "i just want to spend time with you mama." so we did just that.
