It's Official!

Ok, this is going to be a bit of a brag fest, but I just couldn't resist...I appologize for being that annoying mom ahead of time!
My little sassafras is officially going to Kindergarten in the fall, and she is SO excited about it! After much thought, we decided it was best to have Ava take the Early Entry Assessment with the school district. The cut off for kindergarten aged children is September 1, her birthday is September 24, and we've known she's been ready for kindergarten for a long time, but not this ready...SHE PASSED WITH FLYING COLORS! 99% to be exact! I'm so happy, proud and impressed with my little smarty pants. The psychologist who tested her told me "I have never worked with a more intelligent and outgoing person at this age, you really have an extraordinary child on your hands" WOW... music to my ears. Then she went on to tell me how much she loved her outfit (Ava picked it out of course). Anyway, I am happy to tell you that my little preschooler is moving on in the world, and I couldn't be more proud.
Here are her scores (only a small amount of kids who take this test even pass)!
Receptive Language: 97%
Fine Motor Skills: 98%
Reading: 98%
Math: 97%
Cognitive Skills: 99%

Way to go BIG girl! We are so proud of you!

You have every right to brag away on your girls achievements - she's brilliant (inside and out). We've all known how bright she is and now to have that confirmed by the teacher makes it that much more exciting. Congrats Miss Ava!
Can't wait to see what she picks to wear for her first day of kindergarten.
