Keeley is 5.
She will start school in the fall. We have K registration at the beginning of April. We’re already praying for her teacher(s). She has known how to count by 10s for a while. Recently I printed her a worksheet and explained how to count by 2s and 5s. She’s mastered counting […]

Some of our favorite puzzles come from Melissa […]
