1st days of school 2010/2011

Christopher had his first day of 3rd grade on Wed, August 25. I dropped him off with a big grin on his face and picked him up and was welcomed with an even bigger one. He loves his new teacher, Ms. Thinn, and is fast making friends with everyone in his class. Even after some punk kid tried to hang from his legs while he was trying to cross the monkey bars 3rd day in he hasn't waned in his excitement to be back in school.

Today Xander started his first day of Kindergarten. Bret and I (and Xander, too) have been very anxious for this day. And we were worried after his teacher "meet n greet" last night when he left in tears. This morning he was a completely different kid. So excited and ready to go. He happily waited in his class line before the teachers took them in and tried to make friends with the kids around him. His teacher, Mrs. Kendall, gave us a great report when I picked him up. She said he was happy, sweet, and the only thing we needed to work on was raising his hand when he needs to talk (no surprise there).
Overall we are now looking forward to a fun and productive year in school.
