Parent-Teacher Interviews!!!

The night I always dreaded, hoped that it wouldn't happen but always did. I remember wishing that my Mom would decide that she didn't want to go, but that never happened. Ever.

Hannah and Jack got their report cards yesterday at school. Jack is doing well, he has to practice his printing and colouring, but is getting along quite well. A bit of a monkey sometimes, but he's 4. Hannah's report card was good too, she is doing really well reading and adjusting to the 1-2 split. No issues with both so we are very proud of them.

Tonight we went to the school for the parent-teacher interview, but it's a little different from what we had as kids, it's a student-led interview. Hannah sat with us while the teacher talked about her, how she is doing, what her goals are for the rest of the year - oh I don't know ... playing? No, but it was interesting, Hannah was oddly quiet during the whole thing, but sprang back to herself when she showed us her desk and the projects she has been working on. That was our first parent-teacher-student-led interview and by my calculations we will be doing this for the next 15 or so years. - j
