Tea Time

On Tuesday, Brielle hit a big milestone at school (at least I think so).  She was deemed ready to serve tea to her friend.  I don't know a lot about the process, but here's what I do know.

1.  She has been wanting to serve tea for a while.  She was told no this summer because she wasn't ready.  This didn't make her happy.  She had to continue to learn and remember the directions, etc.
2.  Miss Julie said typically kids are closer to 5 when they are ready to make tea.  Brielle has been watching other classmates make tea. 
3.  Brielle's friend Vinny picked her to be his guest. 
4.  The students are responsible for every step.  The teachers monitor, but the kids are responsible for remembering all of the steps.
5.  Brielle was told she could make tea.  She invited her best buddy Sophie.  It was a success! 

At home that night, she was super excited and made tea for Grant and me.  We need to buy sugar cubes, so she can follow the exact steps like at school.  I can't express how excited she was for this accomplishment.
We are so proud!
