Annabelle was so excited to give her snowman to Miss Joni for Christmas! She got super shy when she gave it to her, but then quickly warmed up after she saw how much Miss Joni loved it! Miss Joni said she would hang it in her office, then gave Annabelle a little Christmas treat: Gingerbread cake and a pencil. Annabelle was very excited!
A little shy |
We were lucky to have had Miss Joni as Annabelle's teacher for the past year and a half. She is extraordinary with the kids, dances with them, gets right on their level to speak and interact with them, and has been a great source of comfort and ease for Annabelle, always so patient and understanding. At times Annabelle gets nervous right before dance and will stand at the door, too scared to walk in (even though she loves it). Miss Joni always made eye contact with her, said hello to her, and invited her into class to join them. After that, Annabelle would gallop on in and sit with the class :) Annabelle also loved that Miss Joni would always say hi to Stockton after class! We will miss her!
