Amelia was very excited to start first grade....she was a little put off by the fact that Mrs. Featherston was not her teacher again...I think she thought she might have the same teacher her entire school career! But she is settling in fine, despite her BFF, Gracie, not being in her class this year. They do, after all, still get to see each other at lunch and PE.
Ava is starting fifth grade...10 going on 18...sigh...tween years have hit and we've only just started the double digits. And with that comes all the drama and angst that I thought I wouldn't encounter for another few years. Does that mean if we started early, it will end early?
Nah, I didn't think so either.
Ava's BFF also was not in her class for the first time this year. She's adjusting well though and was happy to have scored one of the iPad 4's that was handed out to the students. She's thinking that in addition to ballet and horse back riding lessons that she will run for student council this year.
Should be a great 2013-2014 school year!
