2nd Grade

Today was Caitlyn's first day of 2nd grade.  She had a hard time adjusting to 1st grade in a new school last year, so I have been a little nervous about how this year would go.  She hasn't seemed nervous and even fell asleep quickly last night.  She got right up this morning and was frustrated that she had to wait so long to go to school.
My mom was wonderful and came over this morning to stay with the other kids so I could take Caitlyn into her class and just be able to focus on her this morning.
I kept waiting for the nerves to hit, but they never did.  She went right into class and said goodbye to me with no problem. I think having a lot of familiar faces in her classroom really helped.  I also think the adjustment to full day was rough last year.  This year she is ready for a full day.  She was getting pretty bored at home.
She has two teachers, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.  She said they are both really nice and she loves school.  What a relief.  Now let's just hope this keeps up.  If I know my kids are happy my day goes much better!

Oh man, what was I gonna say? Loved the blessing pictures, all of them! And J is so ready for school and C looks so totally comfortable and both so adorable. Miss you so so much! We loved dinner. Take a peek at our house, let me know how it looks, I wouldn't hate you if you took a picture either. ;D
