Mother's Day Tea at Montessori

The kids served tea and cookies to the moms and grandmoms. (They practiced for two weeks) It was lovely.


This is Maya Ruth showing Mimi and me how she counts keys on her rug. She lines up the numbers and then sets out the number of keys under each number.

Here she is showing us one of the 2 classroom bunnies. (They also have 2 rats and a hamster)

backstage at Maya's 1st recital

This picture is with Addie, one of Maya's best friends. They have been friends since Maya was 9 months old.


and here they are with Sadie, another close friend.




Alas, there are no pix of the recital itself, I took video instead (and man, was my hand tired of holding still!) Hopefully, I will be able to post some of the video in the near future.

Friday Hookey

I kept Maya home today to play with me and Lucy.
In this picture, the girls are watching a movie called "Mommy killing flies" *note the popcorn.
