A very special post from a very special friend

Well this post isn't exactly from me but I really wanted to share it with you.

Jen is a very special friend of mine and Ayla's. She was Ayla's first ever playgroup teacher at Silkwood, and then we came back for some more playgroup with Jen this year too. You think Ayla is mezmorised when I sing.....wait til you see her when Jen sings:) I learnt all about how important Rhythm was from this lovely lady (not dancing rhythm...daily rhythm) and Ayla has been thriving ever since. Much less frustration and it has really aided her development too. She knows what comes next everyday....we have rhythms for getting out of bed each morning and beginning the day, rhythms at bed and bathtime, a daily rhythm, a weekly rhythm. Some people might say that these are probably not that important to Ayla but just you wait and see what happens if you don't go to kindy on a kindy day!

Jen has her own blog called Lavendilly House where she shares all of her creative thoughts and all of the things that make everyday special. In this blog, More Babies are Coming, Jen shares a little about her doll making workshops and how next year she would like to run one to help with Ayla's fundraising, and there are some lovely photos of Ayla playing at Jen's place too. Just click on the link and it will take you to her blog post.

Thanks so much Jen for all of your support, kind words and care.
