can you actually believe it? these two nuggets went off to school on monday, both full time! when the heck did that happen? and what on earth will i do with myself (don't you worry, i know i'll have plenty of things to do...)
this girl is so ready for the year ahead, she is so bright and bubbling over with a desire to learn, her reading and writing (and most definitely her talking!) are above normal levels and i know she is going to be just fine.
joseph is a little more shy, but he is doing so well, he is already reading way above level (thanks to miss madeline of the living room classroom who has drilled him for months) and loves books (hot tip, if you want your child to read, they have to want to read, so find them something they'll be dying to know the words of - in our case, hot wheels books. boom) so i am sure that he will be amazing and surprise the teachers with how much he knows.
my cute girl. i wonder how much i'll be able to get her to wear the dress this year. she claimed at the end of last year to hate it, but put it on with no arguments... phew. she has a teacher we don't know, but we've been assured she is lovely by a few friends, so that's great!
joseph has a teacher madeline had in pre-primary for two of the five days, and another we didn't know for the other three. we are thrilled to have mrs. cunningham again and we are already liking his other teacher, hooray.
i am sure alex is going to miss the noise and his big siblings during the day, but i am sure he might actually get some good naps in now...
2019 - we are coming for you!
and me, i am trying to pretend i'll miss them, but i'm looking forward to some quiet time! kids are both the best thing and the worst thing ever ;)
