Brooklyn School Update

So how is Brooklyn liking school this semester???
You tell me!
(Valentine's Party)
(Patriotic Day)
(Petting Zoo on a rainy day)


(Western Day)

The teachers in her class are so nice to send out pictures EVERY day!  Each child is probably only in about 2 or 3 of the ones that they send out each day, but Brooklyn looks THIS happy in almost everyone they capture of her each day.  Unless of course she is working on a craft...

Her teachers say that she takes her crafts very seriously.
These mittens that she is working on the picture above and below were selected to be in the art show at their school!

Now notice what hand you see her using for her crafts...

yep, it's no coincidence
Our little B is a lefty!!

It also seems that she may be a bit of a tomboy...
She's such a climber

And would rather hang with the boys
And play with cars
than play with the kitchen and dolls with the girls.

My original plan was to try the napping thing again this semester,
but it has just been so good to get happy, positive and glowing reports each day,
that I've decided just to keep picking her up and letting her nap at home.

They say she is very obedient and cooperative at school and I would probably not believe it except they have pictures like these to prove it.

Standing patiently in line, wearing her hat and necklace, carrying her shaker and holding the rope???
She's even saying cheese and smiling for the camera!!!  Makes me so proud!

But then there are also pictures like this that tell a different story...
Which of these kids is not like the others?
 Right...that's Brooklyn (pink pigtails on the end) facing the wrong way during a puppet show.

And now it looks like she has been crying and is sitting in the teachers lap...hmmm.
They never mentioned this incident.  =)
(btw-this was pajama day at their school...she's wearing her cute "Pinkalicious" pjs...thanks Aunt Ash!)

Overall, though, I would say that this semester is going so much better now that the dark cloud of "the napping situation" is not hanging over our heads.  She still doesn't eat that well at school.  There has only been 1 day EVER at school that she has finished her lunch and it was at their Valentine's party...

where they brought in Chickfila =).
The teachers were so proud and happy to give me that report.  I was not even a little bit surprised.
Chickfila is our FAVORITE place EVER!!

But, if light eating is our worst problem these days and she is learning as much as she is,
I would say that school is a total success!!

I'll leave you with a couple of bonus pics from the petting zoo because it's kinda cute (in a make sure you immediately sanitize your hands afterwards kind of way) and I couldn't figure out how else to fit it into this post.  =)

AGHHHHH!!!
And your mouth!  Sanitize your  mouth!!

I was standing right there!  How did I not see that?!?
  I guess I was too intrigued by the horses green mane to notice???
