Already, the summer is over and our guys are back in school. It's hard to believe we have a first-grader and kindergartener already, but when we look at these guys it's clear that they're ready!
Caedmon has loved his first few weeks of first grade and is doing wonderfully. (He also lost his first tooth right before school started!) Every day when I pick him up and ask "How was your day?" his response is "Great!!" He has a terrific new teacher, sweet friends, and a busy year ahead.
Isaac started kindergarten this year and is off to a great start, too. He has a sweet class of friends and teacher at school part of the week, and the other days we do all his schoolwork at home. We think it's a wonderful balance of time at school and home, especially for a kindergartener, and we're looking forward to the year ahead. It's wonderful to be able to see his delight when he picks up a new skill or does his work well!
Luke, always ready to take on whatever his brothers are doing, has come right alongside Isaac and has his own activities while Isaac is working on his homework. He packs a backpack and a lunchbox (with crackers, pumpkin seeds, whatever he can find!) and carries it with us on school pick-ups and drop-offs. He has become very talkative, especially on the days it's just the two of us, the only quiet time so far has been when he naps. But it's a sweet time for me to get to spend with just him!
