Kindergarten





Henry finally started Kindergarten last Thursday. He's been waiting "his whole life" to go to school and now it's really here. He loves his teacher, Mrs. Broderick, recess, storytime and the little boy he sits by, Hunter Hunter (that's what he calls him). He's made lots of friends - I knew he would. Henry wants to read more than anything, so he's come home every day excited about the new letters he's been learning. I can't wait for math to begin. Henry is a wiz at numbers. He can count well over 100, can do addition (like 12+7), and can tell time. He'll blow his teacher away!

On the first day of school, Henry was supposed to wear his favorite t-shirt for show & tell. No surprises here.
I took this picture this morning. It's not the first day of school anymore - they just looked so gosh darn cute!

I saw your boys at the school this morning, holding hands. It was so cute!Then I turned around and saw Jillian in her dang cute purple dress w/ boots. What stylish kids!

Okay, Elliot looks like Nathan-all stylish, even his hair is done right. It's nice to see kids go to school not looking like they threw on what was on the floor and the hair is brushed. I'm so glad Henry liked school, make sure he reads every night, or you read to him, that will help him to be a strong reader, and practice the letter sounds. Teach him blends and word families-sorry it is the teacher in me. :)

Gillian bought that purple dress and boots with her own money. Kids don't realize that clothes cost actual money, so it was hard for her to spend it. But she looks so cute - she knows it's worth it!

I think Henry is going to keep his teacher in stitches all year. He is soooo funny! He looks so cute. I agree with Nat, Elliot looks just like Nay Nay.

So what are you doing with your free time? Is it weird? Enjoy!
