Back to School

We had to celebrate the first day of school twice this year.  Now that Kennedy is in 1st grade she made her full day school debut on the 23rd, while Alex didn't begin his "Pre-K" journey until the 29th.  It was so fun to see the kids excited about going back to school.  Both Alex and Dede have talked about school all summer long and the first day back didn't disappoint.

 

Kennedy was excited about a few things for 1st grade. I think tops on her list as been the chance to eat school lunch. She also loves having more recess and the chance to see her friends again. Kennedy was super excited to go to the new and improved Oakwood Elementary as well. We're not sure what she thinks about the full day schedule, but Dede seems to be enjoying things so far.

Alex was a big question mark for school this year. We knew how well he did in Miss Fidge's class, but we worried about the transition to a new school, without any friends. Truthfully, it hasn't hurt him a bit. Alex loves going to Spring Lane this year in his special Pre - K class. He feels like he has his own school and his own class, which is just great with us.
