1st Day of Fifth Grade

The day my daughter has waited for since the second day of getting out of forth grade for the summer has finally arrived, the first day of fifth grade. I am so thankful that my daughter LOVES school, I mean she really does. She continued to talk about going back all summer and then when she found out who her teachers were, she was even happier. That's right, she has three teachers this year. So, it was off to school we went.

AJ and I then had speech therapy at 11:15 and boy was he wound up since he got up at 6:30 am.  When we got home at noon, he happily took himself to his bed to take his first nap in weeks.  I figure after a two hour and twenty minute nap he would be ready to pick his sister up from school, boy was I wrong.

Yes, she talked all the way home.  She loves her teachers and says they are all so sweet.  She super excited to get started this year.  Her ONLY complaint; she walks from the end of the hall to the other end, then back to the middle for class changes.  If that's her only complaint, I'd say this is starting out as a great year!

Next up, cheer leading camp, yes it starts tonight too.
