It was a wonderful place for her to be this year. She was challenged and excelled intellectually as well as emotionally and socially. It was a hell of a transition to go from the Co-op where she'd been for the past two years which focused more on child-led learning to a much more structured and school-like environment.
She learned a lot of French words, phrases, and songs. She can count to 15, say her abc's and ask to be excused from the table or use the restroom in French. She learned about personal space and about consequences. She grew up an awful lot!
Quena and Carmen adored her and were quite emotional about her departure and Maya, Danny and I felt much the same.
A chocolaty face...
...and hands...
And of course, how could we forget Don the maintenance man who was a frequent point of conversation during Maya's time at LFS.
