It's amazing that we "finished" at Abra only 2 weeks ago. For something we'd been doing for so long, all day every day, it seems like we've been gone forever. With only a few minor hiccups along the way, Ainsley has certainly moved onto the next chapter.
She's "reading" (reciting) books to us at bedtime, she's off on her own at day-camps in new environments making friends and experiencing life as a Kindergartener. As much as we'd anticipated, I don't think we expected the transition be such... well... a transition?!!
In deference to the inevitable aforementioned "hiccups" along the way, nothing that hasn't been recoverable yet. Fortunately, when the 2-week swim camp went south on day 2 of 10, there was a way to make amends. Another wonderful point has been her ability to interact with Harry during the day, in controlled doses. She sees him here, bumps into him there, and moves on with her day. She even sees his friends, an they report back to each other. I'm thinking this will be a nice precursor to the brief time, that they'll ever be in the same school building.
