for Mira regarding her
summer camp schedule
Two days a week was
her old schedule, but she wants
more time at her school
Mira is our Little Miss
Independent, wanting more
time away from home
So next week, she will
attend five days a week, just
like her big sister
Mira is nothing if not independent. While Cordy struggles every day with going to summer camp, Mira dives right in. She’s happy to be there, throwing her backpack at me by the time she hits the doorway to her classroom. If I stay and talk to the teachers too long, she will come back to me, look up at me, place her hand on my belly and say “bye bye” as she gently pushes me out the door.
But being there only two days a week is not enough for her. On the days when Cordy goes to camp on her own, Mira often throws a fit because she can’t go with her. So after a lot of number crunching and a little help and prodding from family, we extended her summer camp schedule to five days a week for the last three weeks of camp. I think based on her results so far, she’ll love it.
This kid will be trying to move out on her own before she’s six.
To play along for Haiku Friday, follow these steps:
1. Write your own haiku on your blog. You can do one or many, all following a theme or just random. What’s a haiku, you ask? Click here.
2. Sign the Mister Linky below with your name and the link to your haiku post (the specific post URL, not your main blog URL). DON’T sign unless you have a haiku this week. If you need help with this, please let me know.
3. Pick up a Haiku Friday button to display on the post or in your sidebar by clicking the button at the top.
REMEMBER: Do not post your link unless you have a haiku this week! I will delete any links without haiku!
Slightly random question, but I’m having trouble finding it in your archive: What was the brand of the baby slings you were using? Abigail is looking for one. ^_^
I used homemade ones, and also Ellaroo baby slings.
My three year old just potty trained enough that we can slide in for the last two weeks of swimming at our day camp. We are so excited to really be undie girls now!!!
I don’t know too much about summer camps, but they soun d rather important to the young ones! Just as long as they enjoy life and are happy then parents are happy!
Way to go Mira! She sounds like such a great kid. I am glad she’s having fun!
Whatever will you do with all your new-found free time? I jest – there’s no such thing when you have young children . . .
oh, evan’s the same way. he misses daycare and every time he sees the ad on pbs for pre-k in rochester he says, “evan go to school?”
alas, no. not for a few more years, buddy. : )
