At the end of last year, Dillan was curious as to what summer vacation was. I explained all the fun things we could do and that he got to take a break from school. He didn't seem okay with that right away. He asked for a while when he would be going back. Eventually we got busy enough that I think he stopped wondering.
He was very excited to get back to school and his teachers, Ms Carol and Ms Melissa. We walked up, I grabbed his paperwork and name tag. Ms Melissa was there to greet him. He was perfectly at ease and walked into the classroom waving, "Bye Mom!" Ms Carol was at the big table with a few other kids and workbooks were already opened up at every seat. They got right back into it! I helped him put on his name tag, turned around to grab Leah and head out, but couldn't find her. There she was, blending in with the rest of the class, climbing into an available chair right next to Ms Carol. I picked her up and told her she was too little to start school, which she of course hated to hear. She screamed all the way to the car and fought with all her strength when I tried to strap her down.
We're looking forward to a year of reading, Shares, writing, Reading Logs, Book orders, and growing!
