Beginning Our Journey

Jun. 24, 2008

Alyssas First Day of First Grade!

Ok, so we decided to go ahead and start school back up. I know that when this baby comes I will want time off, when Christmas comes, when our Make a Wish Trip to Disney comes... so lots of breaks planned for. Why not start now and get a jump on things so I am not feeling guilt when we do break later.

I am having such a good time with this year already! Alyssa is doing so wonderful! I guess our break from finishing Kindergarten in April until starting her First right now, really matured her! The work is more of a challenge and takes more time but she is really enjoying it! And I am impressed with the quality of her work, writing and even double checking things!

So two days under our belt and we are off and running! And enjoying it!! Even though the look on Alyssa's face tells a different story in the picture above! lol
ETA - oh and what is with the first grader and the sippy cup? Well you spend $$$ on books and give a glass of grape juice to your kid! lol No way am I having grape juice spilled on our school books the 2nd day of school!

LOL about no spills. That is actually very smart. I wouldn't have thought of that but banned the poor child to the kitchen or just said no drinks period. But the sippy cup is a brilliant idea.

We are getting so itchy...ok....*I* am getting so itchy to start school. We've been doing math, reading and nature a couple of days a week but not nitty gritty down and dirty actual school work. Only 6 weeks to go!

(I can't use the pregnant excuse or the Disney trip, especially since we just got back. LOL)
