Nana School for Cora

Image
The Preschools that Kelly tried to get Cora into for this fall were not available, so she asked me if I would be willing to have a "Nana School" for Cora one day a week? Now, really, who can resist that? Today was our first day. We colored pictures. We played outside. Isn't her school dress pretty? She was such a big girl and loved every minute of the day, as did her teacher. We did some swinging. What a happy girl! She picked up jewels. She played with the same Fisher Price little people her mama and uncle played with. She ate lunch. She had "Computer Class" and practiced an educational game. What a joy this little girl was to her Nana and Ducca. Yes, Ducca was also a part of the day. At one point something wasn't working and Cora said, "Ducca will fix it for me." And some of you are asking if it was Nana School, what Standards did we address? Standard 1:  Giggling Standard 2:  Playing
