The back to school special was a hit, so glad I did it again this year. I missed last year and felt horrible. The kids really look forward to it and I think get a lot from the message that is given.
Ben gave a great lesson like usual, he can tap into the kids and their feelings really well and they also listen to him and participate in the dicussion.
The kids got these little journals for school or church. They got to choose their paper at the craft store so they were excited when they saw it all put together.
School started without a hitch, I am sure many kids feel like it is Christmas morning and have a hard time going to sleep the night before and are up early the day it starts. My kids were so excited and I am glad they like school.
Kessler had his Kindergarten assessment and did a great job, he is a smart little cookie. He is so excited I am still a little worried about him being able to wake up in the morning, he is my late sleeper. He will sleep till 10am if you let him.
Bauer was really excited to go to the open house and meet his teacher but when the morning of school rolled around he was nervous. He didn't say anything it was the way he was acting. He is my morning person and is always singing, talking, laughing being crazy and the morning school started he was quiet and subdued. I asked him if he was ok, and he commented he was worried about finding his classroom again. Luckily it is by Mrs. J's class so that made him relieved. Glad to say though he has gone back to his normal self the next day.
