They were both excited to get new backpacks, lunchboxes, and school supplies but when it came right down to it... neither of them were ready to say good-bye to summer! C especially! He wanted to ride the bus and K wanted me to take him. They both seem to have good teachers.
K has only one kid from his class last year. He was ok with that though. He is a very "go-with-the-flow" type of child. He will have a great year. The only thing he got upset about was that most of "his" school supplies went into a community basket. He was so sad that someone else was using "his" scissors. He got over it quick though. He's struggling with the getting up at 6am. Why is that when there is no school they are all up by 6:15am but when they have to be for school they want to sleep longer? It makes no sense!
At least C smiled this year. Last years photo he had a grumpy pouty face on. He has team teachers this year. He will be taught in two different classrooms as well. Maybe this will break up his day some. His teacher has been teaching for 16 years. This is a change. All of his other teachers were in their first couple of years of teaching. When we went Monday to find out where his classroom was and who his teacher would be, we ran into last year's teacher. She is back to teaching 5th grade. C had a different teacher the first couple weeks of school last year. I was worried about who would replace her. The new teacher turned out to be a perfect fit for C. She was great to tutor him some, she was a very bubbly-happy teacher, she was also a HUGE Panther's fan. I really feel like having her last year was an answer to my prayers. I believe she was moved to 3rd grade just for one year for him! Funny how our prayers are answered huh?
