1st conference
I had Dylan's 1st conference yesterday morning after preschool. I think everyone knows that he has definitely been my "challenging" child the past 4 years. I think preschool has been amazing for him and really helped his behavior at home and towards others but I still didn't expect to hear what I did.
* His teacher raved about him.
* Called him confident, but shy and quiet, in a good way. (her words, not mine)
* She told me that of 18 kids in his class, he is by far the most behaved child in the room?!?
* He shares well and all the kids want to play with him.
* And he not only knows everything he needs to know now, but knows just about everything he should know by the end of next year.
* She said, this doesn't happen very often, but I have nothing to give you as "things to work on".
I wasn't exactly sure what to say? I actually laughed when she told me he was the "most behaved"? She did not believe me when I told her he's had me in tears numerous times throughout the past 4 years (because of his behavior). Who is this kid that shows up to preschool because I'm pretty sure he's not my Dylan! :)
I guess I should be thankful. He is growing up and apparently is smart enough to know when to behave. Maybe those threats of being kicked out of preschool that I drilled in his head last summer really worked! :)
1st conference was a success!
Love that picture of Dylan!
