Day 181

Boots and Balls

I love finding things for super cheap that I wanted anyways!!!! Today I got you some Boots and some balls. I have wanted to get you these boots for some time, but just could not justify the $37.95 they charge for them in the stores...but I could totally pay $5 for them and that is what I did. I got you these cream ones and a brown pair a couple sizes bigger each for 5 buckaroos. Now on to the balls. You have been coveting the balls you used at Roots of Empath at Windsor Park School so I was super excited when I found you these ones...they are not exactly the same, but they are balls that makes noise and have things that move inside them, so far you are quite enjoying them.

Day 175

Fun Day

Today was the Track & Fun Day at Windsor Park School so this afternoon we popped in to visit the kids. You had a great time seeing all the kids trying their best at all the events. At times though it did get a little overwhelming for you. At one point the kids were cheering pretty excitedly and it scared you a bit, but nothing that some hugs from Mama can't cure.

Day 146

Roots of Empathy

Adeline has been involved with this program as the teacher at Windsor Park School for several months now. Our time participating in this unique program is coming to an end, so today we attended the Roots of Empathy Year End Celebration!

This was the very first time I saw Adeline a little overwhelmed by other kids. There were babies everywhere and many of them were sobbing because they wanted to be close to their mamas...but not Adeline. She was a little more leery than usual, but she was a champ, clapping along with the song and giving me a HUGE smile when she finally found me among the sea of other parents trying to get the attention of their little ones.

It was neat to see all the other parents and babies who have been involved with Roots of Empathy in and around Edmonton this past year...Adeline even got her own T-shirt...It says Roots of Empathy TEACHER - just like her mama and dada!
