Ready or not ... here it comes. It is school time and even though the summer went by way too fast, the kids were ready. Ashlyn and Matthew are making sure they have all their things for the first day of school.
Yesterday was the first day of school and the kids were excited!!!
Ashlyn went to her Kindergarten Orientation Day. I took her to school and together we walked to her classroom. We learned where she should hang up her back pack. Where to put her pencil box. Where the restroom is located. And, we got to meet many new friends and hear a story read by her teacher, Miss. Peterson! She was so excited and had a great time!
Ashlyn picked out her new back pack. Peppa Pig style.
Matthew is excited about middle school!!! Sixth grade will be another year of goals made and met. He got to go straight to Black Rock with the whole middle school right after their first day of school! We are really missing him here at home but I'm sure he is having the time of his life!!! I can't wait to hear his stories! :)
Hadassah is now in high school!!! (I know ... how can it be?) Our oldest is growing up so much too! She is super excited to attend Linville's High School this year. It's the first year, so many new things are being put into place!!! Even though the kids are all from one school, Hadassah actually is in another building. I was a bit sad to not get to witness her on her first day of walking through the high school doors. I was with Ashlyn and she is of course now old enough to go alone. :)))
We are so happy to see you back in school and ready to learn, Hadassah! Give it your best and you will succeed!!! We are so proud of you!
I took the kids to school their first day because Matthew had lots of luggage for Black Rock and because I needed to stay with Ashlyn for her orientation. Matthew was focused and ready to get to school. He was trying to open the Yukon door before I had it in park. Calm down kiddo!!! :)
It's so fun to see Ashlyn grow and prepare herself for this next exciting stage in her life. She will love school and do well!!! She followed instructions well and we had all her things in place in no time!
She got to do some play time! Ashlyn and Shakia are both in kindergarten and will be going together on Wednesdays. This is just the beginning of many school days together.
Story time with Miss. Peterson.
It was then time to take a bus ride. Parents got to ride along too and so the whole experience was fun for everyone.
Before I left school, I peeked into the gym. The middle school is ready for a few days of fun, spiritual growth and team work! Praying for you guys!
This was the perfect way to introduce Kindergarten!!!
