Changes change everything

So, daughter has learnt many new things this year. She can now:

1. Do multiplication up to 5 (Not yet taught at school)
   
2. Do addition through carrying (Not yet taught at school)
3. Do the back stroke (just about - and yes not taught at school : remind me again why I send her to school?)
4. Read mother tongue moderately well (not taught at school)
5. Count in mother tongue up to 30 (ditto).
6. Eat her dinner on her own (eating basmati rice on own with a spoon is a big deal: it's not simple at all, especially if mixed with gravy (ditto).
   
7. Go to sleep without me in the same room (though we do join her afterwards - her bed is still in our room). (ditto)

These are just some of the things I remember right now. I'm sure there are loads more.

Funnily enough, it is me who feels bad about her progress in many ways (not needing me to go to sleep) even though it is liberating. I'm so sentimental! However, am planning on blogging more regularly since I have more free time at night now.
