The kids are having a great year at school this year! These photos were taken as they were walking to the bus stop on their first day of school. (Aren't they sweeeeet?)Jacob loves having lunch with his friends. He has a teacher who is famous for pulling out teeth. Every child in the entire school who has a loose tooth comes to Mrs. Sherman to have their tooth pulled. Really, they do. Much to his dismay, Jacob is a first grader who has yet to lose any teeth at all. We are all rooting (get it?) for him to lose a few while he is in Mrs. Sherman's class! FYI-Jacob has beautiful hand writing. and runs super fast. Jacob is a kind friend to everyone he meets.
Hannah has two teachers this year. Her teachers job-share; one teaches in the morning, the other teaches in the afternoon. Hannah is a super speller and has joined the 4th and 5th grade choir this year. She is having a good time having one of her best Friends in her class this year. Hannah does a great job of taking charge of any situation when a little guidance is needed, she is a great helper.
Elijah is King of the hill as a fifth grader this year. He has recently taken on the challenge of learning to play the violin in the fifth grade orchestra. The violin is an interesting instrument to hear someone learn, if you catch my drift. Elijah is in the choir this year, too. His new love is definitely the DDR at the Court Club. He asks us everyday if we are going to the gym, just so he can play. He has developed some seriously healthy sweat glands and calf muscles as a result. We enjoy watching him play with the other kids at the club, they usually tire out before Elijah. He has become quite the conversationalist this year, I'm enjoying it very much.
