Birdie Flies To Twos

On Monday, Birdie began her transition from her current toddler ("Tod A") room at KinderCare to the "twos" room. Transitions can be as short as a week, or as long as two. Our Birdie, short of a disaster in the next two days, will probably be fully transitioned by the end of this week. She is, by all accounts, taking this whole thing in stride. The theme in the twos room is the same as that in the toddlers' rooms: the sky. We were very proud to read on the report of Clara's daily doings, that yesterday, in the twos room, when the class was asked what we find in the sky, Our Birdie responded "airplane." Today she was apparently given two piles of legos, each comprised of a different amount of legos. Though she could not yet guess which pile would yield a taller tower, once the towers were built, she did know which was tallest. She also reportedly sat quite contentedly on her cot after waking up from her nap, which is apparently how they roll in the twos room (in the toddler rooms, they all spring up and wander around). At drop off, too, she's a rock star: we do hugs all around and then Clara's all "Check ya!" But then, Our Birdie has always been a very self-assured little thing.
