In January of 2018 we moved to Camp and Adah started attending Retana Care each day. Courtney and I were friends in school and this was the only place I could imagine sending my child when we moved back to AC! There are no words to say to thank someoneel for loving your child like their own!
What Adah has learned:
* No biting! This was one of our first big hurtles. And I was mortified and had no clue what to do with a biter. But Courtney was patient and loved and coached her through it.
* How to go to the same place every day and not get bored. Before this Adah went somewhere different every day.
*How to be nice and share. This is still a work in progress but she has come leaps and bounds while being at Courtney's.
*How to have multiple friends.
*How to insert herself into group play that has already started.
*How to eat what everyone else is eating, or at least mostly!
*How to interact with babies and children younger than her.
*How to not be the center of everyone's attention.
*How to stay quiet at nap time even if you aren't sleepy.
*Adah became potty trained in this time with Courtney.
There are so many more lessons and things that Courtney reinforced for us on a daily basis. It is such a blessing as a parent to send your child somewhere so you can work and know that they are not just being watched but loved and nurtured.
We will forever be grateful for Courtney and her family for loving our stubborn amd sweet Adah Grace!
