There was a catch , this class was a SDC class for kids with speech disorders. My teacher, I am going to call her Teacher J , was a wonderful teacher who helped me out a lot . I later met up with Teacher J right before I started high school at my Jr.High graduation party in 2006. I am getting ahead of my self here so why don't we take a look at the first entry of my pre school journal. This journal was used as a communication between mostly my mom and teacher J with input from dad just to keep it interesting.

Greetings AZ's parents,
Well we're on our record day. AZ got off the bus and joined it [ I think she ment in]. She crise especially in the early morning requesting, "Ma Ma". In fact she is with me holding my arm and leg as I write to you.
Transitional times seem the most difficult.[to this day this remains true] - From one activity to another, classroom to playground - classroom to bathroom. We chose not to go to the library today keeping the routine constant.Overall she is adjusting. It's a big leap for a child. I've been though it w/ my own 3. We are loving, holding and caring for her.
Teacher J
I of course wanted to share something with my parents as well so I drew something that looks like this
This is from AZ teacher J wrote above the paper [ I drew something similar but the picture is not from me it is from this site (http://blog.bolandbol.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/05/061215.jpg)] Mommy and Daddy I love you.
PS :Perhaps you can send a favorite stuff animal,book or toy ,so she could hold on to it, reminding her of home. think about it!
