Bragging Rights ... He's just tooooo smart ...

Well, just received notification that "Poopie" is being skipped ahead ...

This is the second time in less than one year!

"Poopie" (Xavier) attends "school" at the White Marsh Childcare, which is actually a day care/learning center where they place children in "classes" by their ages. The various "grade" levels have the cutest names. When he first started, he was in the "Little Ducks" grade. After only 2 weeks, he was moved up a grade to the "Cuddly Kittens." That was 4 months ago when he was 16 months old. Now Poopie is 20 months old and is being skipped ahead, again, to the next grade.

On his "report card" ~ yes, I said report card ~ the children (parents) are given progress summaries ~ and the comments about Poopie's abilities are always glowing. In every subject ~ Alphabets, Numbers, Colors, Art: Coloring & Painting, Science & Nature, Story Listening, Writing (Drawing), Communication, and People Skills ~ he gets exceptional marks. The administrator told my daughter that usually a child's progress is age-appropirate and on point or just a little beyond, but in Xavier's case, he is found to be quite intelligent. (Guess it's true what they say that the apple (Poopie) doesn't fall far from the tree (me ~ well who else did you think I was going to say? LOL).

I'm so proud of him ~ but you could already tell that by the heading, right? LOL
