MEMORANDUM OPINION
, Judge.
{1} Defendant appeals from her conviction and sentencing for three separate counts of child abuse. On appeal, Defendant argues that her right to be free from double jeopardy was violated, and she should have been subject to only one charge and one punishment for child abuse. This Court issued a notice of proposed disposition, proposing to agree with Defendant and reverse the district court. In response, the State has filed a notice of its intent not to file a memorandum in opposition to our notice of proposed disposition.
{2} Accordingly, we rely on the reasoning contained in our notice of proposed disposition, and reverse two of Defendant’s child abuse convictions and remand with instructions to the district court to vacate those two convictions and re-sentence Defendant.
{3} IT IS SO ORDERED.
