We had Quynh's spring parent-teacher conference yesterday. It's always nice to hear how lovely your child is and see photos and videos of them having fun at school. And if you listen carefully you can often glean some interesting information. For example:
"Quynh's young age and small stature are no obstacle for her. She asserts herself well."
She yells when other kids try to take her toys.
"She can be very focused on a game and particular about how it is to be played."
She's a tad OCD.
"Quynh and [her friend] are very close, but they do have conflicts, as most close friends do."
They fight over toys.
"She is fastidious about hand washing, sometimes soaping and rinsing over and over and over again."
She's perhaps more than just a tad OCD.
"She's very good at falling, she knows how to tuck and roll."
She's clumsy.
"When she plays with blocks she lines them up very carefully in one direction and then turns them around to face the other way. She also does this with chairs and other furniture around the classroom."
Practically an official OCD diagnosis.
In all seriousness, we were thrilled to hear that Quynh is making friends, following routines, learning new things, and thoroughly enjoying herself at school.
