Schedule:
7am Lydia received her own room on her birthday! This means more sleep and occasionally a little sleeping in. She most likes cereal with no milk.
8am School begins! Her favorite subject is handwriting. (Then she said no, reading is her favorite :) She likes most things.)
12:00 Lydia loves to make a turkey sandwich or have leftovers for lunch.
1:00-3pm This year we do our together school after lunch followed by quiet reading time in their separate spaces. Lydia is so self controlled to read and stay in her room during this time.
3pm She heads out to play with friends or just outside if she weather allows.
5:30ish Dinner time! Lydia is a good eater and great conversationalist. Over the past year she has gotten really good at helping clean up after dinner.
7pm After dinner and clean, she heads upstairs and can get ready for bed by herself. She get to read again for 30 minutes and then turns off the light.
Fun things:
- She has lost 6 teeth!
