Seriously was planning on blogging this week and not sure where the time went. Always gets so busy. This week was very good and tough at the same time. Madi had a fabulous week. She had one day of sadness when she got mad that she was held back in the first grade in the Philippines. We had talked about what will come in the next few years and she said she wished she hadn't been held back. We had several good talks and were able to share with her why she was held back and put her mind at ease. Now that she has all the information, she's able to handle it just fine.
We were told that the last few weeks would be an emotional rollercoaster from nervousness, sadness, excitement, fear, happiness. A lot of mixtures of emotions. We've definitely seen that, but overall, she is doing fabulous. It has helped that we've talked tons with her and given her as much information as possible to help her know what is coming in the transition time.
She's excited to see you! And she's excited to get settled and adjusted and familiar with you again.
