Primary

Our ward does a pre-sunbeam class for all the kids who turned 3 this year or are going to turn 3 by the end of the year.  They started the class yesterday so that was Addison's first day in primary.  There are 20 kids on the roll for that class!!  That's huge!  Not all of them come but I think there were at least 12 there yesterday.  I thought it would be kind of noisy and chaotic trying to keep that many 3 year olds quiet and paying attention and sitting in their seats when they are used to playing with toys in nursery. But they did amazing!  They were actually quieter than all the other kids haha.  I'm sure that won't last though.  Once it's not new to them they'll probably be a little noisier but it was a good start at least :)  I was surprised that Addison sat quite still in her seat and paid attention!

So it was Lexi's first Sunday in nursery without Addison and Lexi did amazing too!  We put Lexi in nursery a little early so she could have a few Sundays with Addison in the same class and she has done so well every time.  She is completely content in there and doesn't cry when we leave.  It's so weird to me since Lexi has had such bad separation anxiety and stranger anxiety for months now!  It took Addison 6 months to be ok with us leaving her in nursery.  Lexi was the complete opposite.  She was fine from day one.  These kids keep surprising me.  Lexi's nursery teacher told me yesterday that she was wondering too how Lexi would do without Addy.  I said every time I checked on the girls in the previous weeks they were never playing together anyways.  She said yes, but when Lexi would get sad she would go to Addison and lay her head down on her.  And Lexi would want to sit by Addy during snack time too.  I'm so glad she told me that.  That melts my heart!
