Moment

When Julie dropped off Lyla at school this morning, she discovered that almost every kid had a cold. They were all fine on Friday, and at some point this weekend, they all got colds. Which is kind of cute.

If you recall, I was assigned by Julie to come home with a good nugget. There's a tiny table away from the play area, without anything interesting on it or near it. A teacher told me that several times today, Lyla abandoned toys and companions to sprint-crawl to that table and pull herself up on it, where she would then stand contentedly for a few minutes. She also still regularly crawls under the Exersaucer and hangs out; the teachers have named it Lyla's fort.

But here's the nugget: when I entered the baby room at 5:00, a teacher was holding Lyla in the rocking chair and making her giggle. It was the best moment I've ever had in a classroom.
