Summing Her Up

It’s hard to believe, but we’ve already started paying Ane’s tuition for this coming school year (her last year in preschool!), and we just got a letter from her new teacher.

The teacher is someone I recognize from the school, but don’t know. To get to know each of the kids in the incoming class, she is asking the parents to fill out (with the child’s assistance) a small questionnaire, asking the children about their favorite things (color, animal, book, etc.) and what the child wants to be called at school.

The parents are also asked to send the teacher three pictures. One needs to be a 3″x3″ size of the kid’s face (this is for the kids’ daily attendance – last year, Ane’s teacher had laminated construction paper apples with each child’s name and picture on it. The kids would get their apple each morning and hand it to the teacher as they walked into class), one needs to be a 4×6 of the kid’s family (so the teacher can see the immediate family structure, I think), and one needs to be a 4×6 of “just you doing your favorite thing.”

After scrolling through our most recent pictures, including Disneyland (where the family picture will come from), I finally decided on what to send in:

It just sums up the essence of the girl, don’t you think?

    I think it would sum her up better if the lightsaber was bashing Tad on the head. 😉
