The kids were super excited for school to start this year. Haylie couldn't wait to go all day AND be able to eat school lunch. Brody was excited to be able to be with his friends more often. This year was going to be different. Their principal Mr. T. was not going to great them as they walked through the front door. He has accepted the job of the Superintendent. Their new principal is Mrs. Cherie Blackburn. The kids are sad the Mr. T. is gone but excited for Cherie to take over. The night before school started Haylie tried on several different outfits trying to find the perfect one. Finally she found what she was looking for. She is so excited to wear new clothes. She said to Shane and I the other day "I'm about to run out of new clothes." Her dad's response "Oh, that's too bad maybe you'll have to wear some of them again." She was fine with that as her crisis had been solved once again. Her favorite things to do in school are: The computer lab, school lunch, recess, and music. I am so grateful the school brought the music program back. Haylie comes home singing songs that I remember singing such as I'm a little pile of tin... and John Jacob Jingle Hiemer Smith. Even though some of the words aren't quite what I remember, we love to listen to her sing and do the actions. Brody likes to play kickball with the 5th graders, pass off his times tables, and he is getting really excited to learn cursive writing. He asks me quite often to teach him how to write in cursive. I hope he is just as intrigued with it when he is expected to write in cursive.
