First Day of School

The kids were super excited to start school. Caramel going into 4th grade with Mrs. Tugman (Mrs. Tugman was Caramel's reading teacher last year). Caramel was excited to have her as a teacher this year. Rhett going into 1st grade with Ms. Willits. Ms. Willits was new to Fairwood Elementary last year and is super energetic singing and having the kids move around while learning. They both have a small class size which is awesome. Rhett only has 13 kids in his class and Caramel 19. Myles in Preschool at Cross and Crown with Mrs. Alsept has 12 students. Compared to the other kids that number seems high! Myles had no problem going to school, even Camellia needed a backpack while driving the kids to school. Myles has 2 church friends in his class which makes me grateful.

We have already gone to curriculum night which was great meeting the teachers. A 4th grade teacher refers to the students as scholars which I thought was cute. Caramel learns the recorder this year and is attending Honor Choir before school.

Before school had even started, I had been there a lot with PTSA stuff. I am the vice president this year which is more than I wanted to be, but it is keeping me busy and very involved.

I have volunteered in Caramel's and Rhett's classroom. I was just in the back of the room doing paperwork, but I love to watch them and see how the act in there classroom environment. Caramel is still playing tetherball at recess. And Rhett says the girls chase the boys at his recess.

And we painted our front door red.

Which I learned later you have to get the HOA to approve, oops.
