Our Journey towards Parenting!

Elliana is now 5 years old! This past school year she attended 4k at Community Care! Her teachers were Ms.Liz, Ms.Jeannine and Ms.Renae. Ellie did well in school but she was so very shy. It took her a good 4 months or so before she'd even talk to Ms.Liz. She had a few moments in class where she got emotional but they worked through them.
