We have moved twice only this year- from Salt Lake to Alpine, then from Alpine to Orem. While living in Salt Lake Giovanna used to go to a preschool in South Jordan. When we moved to Alpine the commute became impractical so we enrolled her in a Montessori school near to where we lived.
We thought the transition would be hard on her, but the Montessori program is amazing. She loved it! She studied there until July when we moved to Orem. The timing was perfect and in August she started Kindergarten.
When I called the school they asked me if I wanted to enroll her on the immersion program in Spanish. She would be part of the very first group of students to start immersion in Kindergarten. They usually start on 1st grade.
I remember when the office called me offering the spot I wasn't prepared to give them an answer. I actually had not even thought about it because they had put her on a waiting list. Then I thought they would never call me. But they did. And I said yes.
So off my baby went to her very first day of Kindergarten. Six hours away from mommy.
Funny thing I was the one who cried and counted the minutes to pick her up.
She came back home so happy, telling us all about what she had learned and the friends she had made. What a big girl!
We love you Giovanna. You make us proud everyday!
