The first day of school in second grade was....great! Lacey was a bit nervous and wanted me to come in the class with her when we got there but she did just fine and sat right down and waited. . . .She said her head was spinning with all the stuff they learned. They did a tour of the school first thing but she didn't seem to remember where the bathrooms were because when I picked her up she said she never went at school. The teacher had explained that if you went too many times during class you would have to put your name on the "Name board" so she held it all day. I explained that she had to go and it was OK. She has three recesses and so she said the first one she just walked around to check things out. The second she and her cousin Symantha did some playing and buy the third recess she and Symantha found some jump ropes and played that with some new friends! In class Lacey told me that she was the first one to turn in her math paper when she was done, and her teacher told me when I picked her up she was shocked at how fast Lacey got it done. Lacey liked it all in all and said she made a new friend who sits across from her.(but she doesn't know her name yet) Mommy had a little break down of tears when the door closed(sobs), but I was soon joined by other mommies (Aunt Amy too.) A few spells of tears throughout the day but we made it. And I already signed up to do somethings for school at the PTA tables and sent in my fingerprints.
Carter was not feeling well today and had a fever so he had a day of rest and will start his school year tomorrow. The advantages of homeschooling!
Keep all our children in prayer, Alice
