First Day of 4K

Ever since his summer school session Clayton has been talking about 4K at Willow and how he gets to go this year. Yesterday we met his new teacher, Mrs. Hoffa, dropped off school supplies, took school pictures and he did a little craft project with his teacher while I filled out some paperwork. Turns out he's in the same room this year as his four week mini-session this summer to "Get Set for 4K" - that helps for sure.

Clayton was ready to go this morning. He wanted me to take his first day picture on every boulder in the front garden. "Just one more mom" and at the end he said, "Okay, mom let me look at those and see how I did." He proudly walked down to the bus stop hand in hand with Brooke and got on the bus no problem. I just picked him up from the bus stop and he told me about his day. I asked if he wanted to do it again tomorrow. "Yeah, mom, that was AWESOME!" I'm so thankful his first experience with school was a positive one.


The CREW. I love how they all insist on holding hands to cross the street together.

Lincoln is ready to go too! He's funny with taking his backpack down to the bus with the kids. All day long if you ask him where Brooke or Clayton is he'll say, "BUS!" My pediatrician brought up the fact that in their little heads Brooke and Clayton are probably riding around on the bus all day. He sees them get on and then they magically reappear at the end of the day from the bus. I had never thought about it that way, but so true.
