Meet the Teacher

While its always sad to see summer go, we are getting so excited about Back to School!!! Its a big year for our family, as Jacob is starting Kindergarten and Lydia is starting Pre-School. Both kids had "Meet the Teacher" open houses the Friday before the first day. They were so excited to see their new classrooms and meet their new teachers!

I decided I should take some pictures of Jacob just in case there wasn't time (or cooperation) on the first morning of school! He looks so grown up!

Lydia is starting her first year at Son-Shine Preschool. She is going to be in Mrs. Laura and Mrs. Julie's Two Year Old Class. She seems to have mixed emotions about going to school and has been adamant that she will not be doing any crafts! She's pretty familiar with the building and teachers since she's been there so much in the past two years, however, she did seem a little unsure now that its her turn to attend.

Jacob is starting Kindergarten at Fletcher Elementary! He's in Mrs. Tillery and Ms. Greene's class and was so excited to check out his classroom. After introducing himself to his teacher, he spent time trying out his new seat, looking at the centers, and finding his cubby. He didn't want to leave and says he can't wait to start on Monday morning!

Jacob ran into some old friends from his preschool class! I think it was comforting to everyone to see some smiling, familiar faces!

Lydia made some new friends!

I'm excited to be starting a new adventure, too! I'm a Volunteer Coordinator on the Fletcher PTO and I'm really looking forward to being involved in Jacob's new school! We have a lot of adjustments ahead, but I think we're ready!
