Joy’s Week

Playing with her baby and on the swing set with her sisters

Playing with Bella – how Joy loves her sister!!

Joy headed into preschool – “Mom, are you coming?”  And the beautiful face I see in the morning.

Learned more about the school sequence around here.  I talked with another mom I saw up at Girl Scout camp.  Her daughter is six and has the same zoning as us.  They went to the school that I have heard so much negative feedback about for PPCD.  She agreed with what everyone else has said.  She was very disappointed.  But then once she got to Kindergarten, she was sent to a school that I have heard very good feedback on.  What?  The impression the district ladies gave me was that she would be stuck at that less than ideal school till junior high.  No, just for PPCD.  Ahhh…..yea!  Just one more year.  I can figure something out for one year.  Yea!!  Good news!

Joy’s Happy World

She has learned how to go round and round.  Her therapist is thrilled.  Her Daddy says he used to do this for hours.

Pizza!  And hanging out with sister Lizzy.

Joy’s Week

Playing with sister

Tea Party and watching TV from a box:

Joy adores Pizza!  And Joy at school

Saturday I was so busy and Joy couldn’t be with me.  She spent the day with her Daddy.  I bribed her with everything I could – soda, kisses anything.  But she knew I was leaving her and she looked at me with the saddest, heart breaking look.  How I love you Joy.  You are safe and loved forever – it is my promise.

Spring Break

 

What is a girl to do when her sisters are taking forever trying on clothes?  Play ball – right in the middle of the floor. 

She loved this dog at Old Navy.  I need to get one.  Sounds much easier than a real dog!

 

This is Joy’s ultimate pleasure – watching Strawberry Shortcake with Strawberry Shortcake while drinking soda from Sonic!

 

 

 

Having fun at home, at the park, and at the Arboretum.

Playing at Fireman’s Park and enjoying some ice cream.  This girl loves to swing and slide – no time for eating – I have to play!

Joy’s Week

 

Joy only went to school one day this week.  We have been battling a viral thing.  Lots of Strawberry Shortcake and Blue’s Clues around here! 

 

 

 

 

 

Painting – Still trying to decide what to do with little Miss for school next year.  Do I contact the school and get her tested so she can go to PPCD next year?  Or do I keep her at home?  Researching on the internet was so exciting!  Birth through third grade is my degree.  The answer will come.

 

 

Guess who learned to open the fridge?  Gonna have to watch that!
