My Fashion Model & Kindergarten

One afternoon I had been busy in the kitchen and not paying a lot of attention to Laura.I knew she was okay because she wasn't crying. We kept all of the rooms closed off that she could either get hurt in or get into something we didn't want her in. She had the full run of the huge living room and her bedroom. It was a lot of territory for a little one year old to explore. When I finished up what I was doing, I went to see what she was up to. She was being so quiet so she must be fully engrossed in some fun activity. She was just sitting in her room with a dresser drawer open putting on shirts. She had put on seven or eight shirts. She just put her head through the neck holes, she didn't do the arms, afterall she was only one year old. When she saw me she gave me the sweetest smile.

Minot did not have kindergarten in their public school system. I wanted Danny to have kindergarten because most of the kids in his first grade class would have had it. I sure didn't want him to start out his school years already behind. I enrolled him in a private kindergarten that was about five or six blocks down our street. I put him in an afternoon class for a couple reasons. Number one--I am not a morning person. Secondly, I could drive him to school, then bring Laura home to take a nap and I could have my quiet alone time that I treasure. It all worked out real well and all were happy.
