Well, August 2017 arrived quickly after our trip to Michigan, and Boom! We have a 1st grader and a Kindergartner!!
Leah, you got to meet your 1st grade teacher, plus you know Rockvale Elementary inside and out- so your biggest hurdle was just getting up early again. And since you were already a pro at the school thing, you had time for a little morning modeling shoot right in our driveway. :)
But for Logan- this was his big month- the start of Kindergarten! I took you to the school a couple weeks ahead of time to do the registration. We got a little bit lucky because Mrs. McGreggor (Leah's old teacher) was at the table and was excited to do your screening test.
After that, it was just a waiting game. A waiting game for August 14, 2017. Actually, I think you've been counting down Kindergarten since April. You pretty much asked every other day through the summer, "How Many More Days 'til Kindergarten?".
And then the day arrived!
Leah, you started 1st grade, 5 days before Logan started, but you wanted to take the bus, so I let you. It didn't take you long to rave about how much you liked Mrs. Massengale's class.
Logan, Rockvale let's the parents walk Kindergartners to class the first week, so I walked you to Mrs. Smith's class Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. But then on Thursday, I was ready to ask if you were brave enough to take the bus...and you didn't even hesitate. You walked across the street with your sister and got on Bus #13 like a big boy. And that was that.
I look forward to hearing about your new school adventures and watch you both grow!
Love,
I'm a Rockvale Rocket |
