On two separate nights, over the previous two weeks, the elementary school hosted open house for Olivia and Meredith's grades.
Not too much to say about them, other than I LOVE their teachers!!!
Olivia's teacher, Mrs. Andress, was voted teacher of the year, just last year. She is middle-aged with kids in their twenties. She sent home a letter telling us all about her. She is born and raised in Jamaica, which is interesting since she is white. (I couldn't place the accent,but once I heard where she was from, she sounds Jamaican) She is the first white Jamaican I've ever met.
She is very approachable and caring. When Olivia was going through the whole rash thing, she was in touch with me often. Sometimes calling just to check on her. She even gave me her cell #.
Meredith's teacher is Mrs. West. She is a young Grandma type, which is good since last year she had a 23 year old kindergarten teacher. Mrs. West is comical and witty and, guess what, Meredith LOVES her.
I stayed behind in the open house to tell her that Meredith's little fire was lit, when it comes to school.
It was a nice night.
