First Day of School




Jacob and Claire started school today.

Jacob is going to 4th grade. He is in a technology classroom, where each desk has an iMac and computer use in integrated into the curriculum. His teacher is incredibly organized, which should be great for Jacob.

Claire is in 2nd grade. Her teacher had been the music teacher. She runs a more open and flexible classroom. And Claire already knows a friend in her class from church.

And now I'm alone with Isaac. It should be fun.

I can't believe they're staring school already as it seems so early. I certainly hope they are getting out earlier than the rest of us to compensate! Regardless, they look excited and ready to go! Jacob's classroom sounds like an especially great opportunity, by the way.

It is early, but they get out around Memorial Day. In New York they don't start until after Labor Day, but they also don't get out until the end of June.

My kids are jealous. They have been counting the days until school starts since the last day of school in June. Only 12 days to go!

Shelly! Hello old friend. I apologize for dropping off the face of the earth and not keeping in contact with anyone. How are you? How many kids do you have?
We've got to catch up.
