Day 1 down, 176 to go!

Seriously, it was great to be back and to see the kids! I am excited to start the week with them tomorrow! I think overall it is a nice bunch of second graders!

It was also Haliey's first day of Third Grade. Wentworth is such a big school and she will grow up fast over the next three years I am sure. She was all dressed up in her snazzy white capris with her black sparkly tshirt that said, "Daddy's Expensive Princess" in wild glittery letters. I stood with her, her dad, her mom, and her brother this morning at the end of the driveway waiting for the bus and thought back to the first time I did this when she went to Kindergarten! She is growing up way too quickly! Everything went very well today and she loved her teacher and her class. Tomorrow she will meet her 4th grade classmates. She will also take the bus from Wentworth to Eight Corners. I will feel quite relieved when I walk down at the end of the day and see her sitting on the bench waiting for me.

Jordan begins preschool next week and will go to his open house on Wednesday morning. I hope he likes it and does well. He does not do too well with strangers or strange kids so this will be a learning curve for him.

More later....
