quarter pole

Katie gets her first report card tomorrow, as the first nine weeks will be over. Don't look now, but she is a quarter of the way through kindergarden already. Amazing, isn't it? She just started a couple of days ago.

She is thriving in school so far. She constantly mimics her teacher, and anytime she wants to make an incontrovertible statement of truth it begins with, "But Mrs. Massey said, ...." She knows all of her sounds now and what letters they correspond to. She knows which letters are thieves, borrowing the sounds of other letters, including x, which sounds like a z in starting words like xylophone.

The time, it does go by quickly.
