dashiell got his share day bag ready on his own yesterday...i fished it out of his bag this morning...good thing i did.

he picked a little car that was orange and had black wheels. the color of the day was BLACK.

i had to compliment him on writing it himself, but can you read it?!

i asked him...

#1. Black (bac)

#2. Metal (mdl)

#3. It has metal windows (ut hz mhendl wdz)

he didn't come up with a #4 or #5...

apparently he didn't want nana seeing it at all on sunday when he was doing it. he wanted to do it all by himself.

i convinced him to find something else eventually (a black lego tire) and he wrote out new clues before i had to leave for work.

------------------------------

i had a parent conference with miss brandy at brenny's school right after school.

while waiting for her, i saw this picture of brennan's up on the wall.

some of the few things she had to say about him....

• he will share when you ask him to share,
• but when he wants something, he will hit and then take it away
• when something is wrong, he doesn't verbalize. even when asked, he doesn't like to say it out loud; instead, he will come up to miss brandy and tell her quietly himself.
• he knows all his upper and lower case letters and knows his numbers through 20.
• even just in 2 short months, he has gotten a lot better at tracing his letters. she will work with him on tracing/writing his name
• he hates having to give miss brandy time (when they are misbehaving)
• miss brandy loves to sing, and she has just about a song for everything. brenny loves to sing and dance with her.
• she says he's clumsy at times; sometimes she'll see him running along, and then he just trips. not on anything at all. just trips. she says she asks him if the floor got him
