Screening

Daughter had her pre-screening for preschool this morning.

What chaos. I'm glad I've only got the two kids, so I won't have to do that again!

I was informed by the psychologist that Daughter is at or above the expected range in all of the areas she was screened for. Daughter was way above the expected range in verbal concepts and I'm happy to say did very well at fine motor skills.

At this age, a few months away from four, Son wasn't so great with the fine motor stuff, so I was pleased to see Daughter doing so well.

But...I fear I face the long path of name spelling. Daughter has a nice, old-fashioned name, but I've given it a sort of Celtic spelling, and so everyone tends to spell it wrong.

*sigh*

I guess it's to be expected; these are the same people who insist that Son's name only has one "t" in it...and it's a two "t" name!

And I'm waiting for that surname misspelling, too. Everyone here wants to spell it "Eyefull" because there's a family around here that spell it that way, so we should too, right?

No, ours is the French spelling - Eiffel.

Get it right, damn you!
