Sophie - 8/25/2017

Saying goodbye is about the only part of my work that is not fun for me!  I get very attached to my kids and families!  First, what a joy it has been for me to have the Pat & Molly Boyle Family at Little Treasures.  I've enjoyed working with you and caring for your children.  Thank you for trusting me with that privilege.  I'm so thankful you wanted Nora to stay here even when Lauralea moved on in her career over four years ago. Secondly, Sophie was the first new infant that I had after I went solo!!  And so I have special attachment to her!!  She was a wonderful Baby and I've often been so very thankful for such an easy Baby for my first one.

I looked through some pictures last night and chose one that was always a favorite of mine and posted it below.  Sophie has been an absolute delight in many ways.  I know she is ready to move on and she will love her new adventure at Pre-School.  I love her sense of humor and how easily she laughs.  (And she  has a great laugh!!)  She is super intuitive and tunes in to others around her and she has a kind and tender heart.  She is truly a joy.  I love you Sophie Boyle!

We had a fun morning even though Sophie coughed and coughed!  Poor Sweetie!  Reid was my puppy and we were playing "fetch" with a food toy.  Sophie was cracking up; "laugh, cough, laugh, cough!"  She said, "Hey Gary!  Knock knock!"  Who's There?  "Take your socks off!"  I don't get it. "I'll do it louder!"  LOL!  Ok, I'm sure that will help!  It's obviously my hearing issue.  I took a picture of the kids doing a "Goodbye Poster" for Sophie.  We also played outside with bubbles and she rode bikes.
