On Talking in School

Thursday, August 30th, 2007

If you’ve spent any time with Kennedy, you know she’s not big on words around people she doesn’t know. Her PreK teacher last year said Kennedy didn’t say a word the entire first month of school. I am proud to say that we are only three weeks into the school year, and Kennedy […]
