After a bit of a rocky start, Wendy is thriving in 2nd grade and on Monday received the award of Student of the Month for October! She was so proud, as were we, of course. Her English is growing by leaps and bounds, and she really enjoys reading. She is doing very well on her quizzes and tests and has received mostly 80s and 90s recently, it seems. She studies her spelling and vocabulary most mornings before school, though bringing her own style to the project. For example, today she was sitting in the bathroom with me looking at her flash cards while I finished my makeup and when she came to the word "handsome," started bellowing, "PAPI! PAPI, you're HANDSOME! HANDSOME! GOOD-LOOKING! GOOD-LOOKING!" Well, of course, there was nothing I could do but agree. As they say, he had me at hello.
Picture to come of Wendy with her award. We have had major uniform/laundry difficulties recently, between leaving behind her gym clothes in Tivoli and losing her uniform shoes. So we just haven't had it all together for a formal portrait. But it's on the list and hopefully soon we'll get that posted as well.
Update: here it is!
