Moving to San Antonio was filled with so many unknowns. We purchased our house sight unseen, unsure if I would work or stay home, what activities would be available to our kids, etc. Little by little, the unknown was revealed. One of the blessings discovered was The Prep Preschool. It neighbors our development and was such an amazing place for Gavin to dive into the world of structured learning! He had a fantastic year. I was quite nervous for him unsure if his quietness would hold him back or if he'd adhere to following routines. Thankfully, he was blessed with beautiful teachers who understood their roles, fostered good behavior, and made learning fun. Gavin entered knowing his letters and the sounds each letter made, but he learned so much to include daily writing, reading and sight words along with basic adding and counting to 100. He is ready for kindergarten!
Claire, You are 12! The past 12 years have passed so quickly and we've focused on enjoying the journey. You've seen so much and done far more in your 12 years than most do in a lifetime. You are entering the 7th grade, successfully made the ECNL U13 soccer team, are focusing on learning piano, and working to maintain your straight A record. We couldn't be more proud of who you are becoming. You are kind, loving, stubborn, and strong. You don't get caught up in girl drama, extend kindness to those in need, and love to cook, and create. We love you! We spent the day at the drive through safari, which also had a petting zoo. We ended the day at the Natural Bridge Caverns. DQ Oreo ice cream cake--your favorite! We enjoyed the SAFC game where you were given a gift bag of goodies!
