Olivia had a great first day in the Jungle room. She will be in there during the mornings until next week when one of the teachers gets back from vacation. Her good friend Hyung Sup is going to move to the jungle room too so that is a good thing.
Check out the comments on this post to see what her teachers had to say about her! It was the formal evaluation that they gave me at our conference Tuesday.

What a great evaluation. I knew she mixed well with kids, when we would take her to the playground in the mall or a park, she would make friends right away. She's our little "social butterfly"! And with the imagination that she has, I can see why she likes to pretend play etc.
What a girl, Olivia is a wonderful girl who each day if full of surprises, both in what she does and what she has to say.
