Well OK ... it's nice for some of us!It's time for our annual first day of school photos at the mailbox. Both boys were very excited about school starting.
Roy is in 2nd Grade this year with Mrs. Hellmer. He's very excited about her classroom because there is a traveling Teddy Bear that he's booked to go back to MN with us in December.
Granted it has only been two days but she's doing a fantastic job of working with him. We are very excited about his year!
Joey has started Kindergarten this year with Mrs. Greer. He was a little star-struck when I walked him into school on Monday. It's the same school he was doing preschool one day each week last year, but now it's "Big Boy" school and he was too cool to acknowledge his preschool teachers.
His teacher called us last night to tell us that he had a great first day and then she called us again tonight to let us know that Joey is pushing all of the limits. She explained that it is all totally normal 5 year-old behavior but she thought he might benefit from a talk at home tonight.
I think he might actually be a little too confident since he's been at the school before, he is kind of being a bossy pants with the other kids. We reiterated what his teacher told him about that not being the best way to make new friends. Everyone has their fingers crossed for tomorrow!
