It's hard to believe it has been a whole year since Bailey started kindergarten. What a great year it has been for her. She learned to read, do fractions, addition and subtraction, journal and write some amazing stories! I can't wait to see what this year will bring for her. She is so excited about school and can't wait to learn. I think the one thing that really surprised me was her ability to write stories and journal at her age. Her teacher was big on journaling about things and then drawing pictures to illustrate her stories. I was amazed about the things she would write about. It was so great to see her get excited about things. The principle met with us and told us Bailey definitely has a gift with her writing. She was amazed at the story lines and how she would draw pictures to bring her work to life. The teacher and principle told us that she is way beyond and above what she should be at that age!! That is what every parent likes to hear. That their child is excelling at something. We are very proud of her and we are of all our children. I can't wait to see what she will learn this year. I have the same hopes and prayers for her as I did this time last year when she started kindergarten. I know that God is watching over her. I am very comforted in that. I pray that God will put a hedge of protection around her, that He will give her wisdom to choose the right friends, the strength and courage to stand up for what she believes in and what is right and the ability to recognize evil and despise it.
I am excited for her as she continues on her journey. I will be praying for her everyday as I do for all my children. I will also be praying for her teacher, principle, students and even the bus driver! There can never be too much prayer. So, as she gets off the bus today, I will send up a thank you to God for returning her safely to me and for watching over her when I couldn't. I love you Bailey and can't wait to hear about your day!!
