Gabriel is loving first grade. I was a little unsure of how things would progress - his teacher is very "seasoned" and strict. I had heard a few things about her that made me nervous. I discussed my concerns with the school, and they assured me that she was a good match for The Boy. After seeing how Gabe has responded to her (and after hearing some really great things about her from Janna's preschool teachers), I realize that my fears were completely unfounded. Mrs. T. is absolutely perfect for my guy. He's thriving!!
Kindergarten is apparently Elliott's version of heaven. She gets up every morning and wants to immediately go see Mrs. C. She loves everything about school. The first full day was a little rough - she didn't want to eat lunch in front of strangers and she was afraid to go to the bathroom - but now she's totally confident. She runs off the bus every afternoon, flies through the house, launches herself into my arms, and gives me a rapid-fire explanation of everything she did. She couldn't be happier!!
The Smallish started school this week, too. And...she LOVES it!! Her first "official" day (meaning Mommy wasn't there) was Thursday, and she pretty much ordered me to leave. She wanted no hugs or kisses...all she wanted was the playdoh and the sand table!
So...all three of my little lovies are in school. While it's a little weird not having them here all day, it's also really, really nice!
