Ist Day of School

The kids are really enjoying school and I can't believe that Isaac is 6 weeks in.  Isaac is in kindergarten this year and doing great.  I had a conference the other day and the teacher said he is a very bright boy...who is a bit of a daydreamer! :)  Hey, I think it's going to take him places!
We have decided to put him in a local private Christian Classical school and it has been awesome.  They have a half-day program that we like and he has a wonderful teacher.  He has 16 kids in his class.  He seems to be soaking everything in and really enjoying his class and teacher. He has a uniform which I love...so easy! :)

Our handsome boy is growing so big and we are proud of him!

The girls started a couple weeks after Isaac and are in the preschool program at the same school as him.  They are doing Pre-K this year and seem like they are on track to start kindergarten next fall (doesn't seem possible!).  The preschool doesn't have uniforms so we pulled out the fun dresses for the first day of school.

These 2 make us laugh all the time.  They are quite the pair.  They are in the same class this year.  We will eventually put them in separate classes but for now it works well to put them in the same class...they really get along well (mostly!) and they are sweet with each other.

Here is Isabella at her seat at school. She is doing such a great job writing her LONG name!  The girls both love school and we are encouraged by all the great things they are learning...Bible stories, music, latin and they have the best art teacher ever! :) Guess who?...me :)

Here is Ava in her seat.  The girls have really adjusted well to going 5 mornings a week (they only went 2 mornings last year).  They are learning new things daily and this Ava girl has a GREAT memory!!

I am teaching art at the SAME school for preschool-2nd grade (22 classes!) and it is going really well!!!  I teach while they are in class.   We all leave the school together at 12:30.  I love art and it has been a really fun to teach it.  It is such a great job for me and I love being home with my kids in the afternoons!!!

Next up...Isaac and his first bicycle ride...without training wheels!!
