I'm happy that Adri is growing up happily. Yes, although she fights with Ashlynn and they bicker every day, that itself is growth. Each day, as they squabble, the girls learn a little about conflict management, an important life skill.
At this moment, the sense of satisfaction I'm experiencing stems from Adri's academic 'growth'. From one who could barely read at the beginning of the year, Adri is making good progress deciphering n decoding words. More phonetically skilled (kudos to her phonics class), she has progressed from sounding, spelling and writing simple words to stringing those words together into a sentence! :)
Though 'tough' (and frustrating at times), I'm certainly enjoying the daily sessions I have with Adri, especially when I'm beginning to see the fruit of our (Adri and mine) labour.
