Third Day of School

I'm a couple days behind, but school did start on Monday, and here's how the school kids looked.



I'm not sure who was happier, them or me! It's been rough on everybody being stuck at home during the summer. Jane is excited about her 3rd grade teacher, who seems to be a lot of fun. On the Friday before school started, the mail carrier delivered a beach ball to our door that had been mailed by Janes's teacher, fully inflated, like a post card - with a stamp and the address written right on the ball. It said, "Jane, we are going to have a ball in 3rd grade. See you on Monday!"

Jake and Lucy are in the same kindergarten class. It's only 1/2 day kindergarten, which they seem to like. I miss the days of free all day kindergarten... At least they seem to be getting along with one another and making new friends. I'm grateful for a schedule that doesn't include all the kids all the time. Yay for school!



Me on the last day of summer break. I'm so done.
