Adaptable

This past week Charlotte began a new class at school. A spot opened up in the 3 day/week 2 year old class. She had been attending the 2 day/week 2 year old class. After some debate, I decided to move her to the 3 day class. She made the transition to the new class very easily. I was so grateful that she adapted to the change so well.

Judd and I were discussing how adaptable she is and how grateful we are for that. She seems to be able to sleep almost anywhere. Over Christmas she slept on a bed of blankets on the floor in the "cousin room" at her grandparent's house. Then she came home, had a couple of nights in her own bed before my parents came. When they were here, she slept in her tent in our bedroom. She didn't have any trouble transitioning between sleeping arrangements. This may seem small, but to us it is awesome to know that she'll get a good night's sleep most anywhere.

She is always fairly willing to settle for a substitute when something doesn't go her way. Whether it is a food she wanted but isn't available or an event that doesn't happen.

It may be too soon to say, but it seems that she has even adapted fairly well to the birth of her brother.

She'll be 3 in just a few weeks. I'm not sure where the time has gone. I can hardly believe my eyes when I look at her sometimes - she is just so big. She is our beautiful, sweet, adaptable girl.

She impresses me so much! I know she would do just fine in her new class. She really is so easy going. I keep praying some of that will wear off on M!
