Kennedy & Colby’s first days of school.

September 8th, 2011

Yesterday was Kennedy’s first day of pre-K.  She is attending the same preschool program Colby attended, at a church close to our house.  Kennedy is a real people-pleaser and I worry a little about her first time in a school setting.  I am praying that her teacher will see how receptive she is to praise and that Kennedy would flourish and learn well.

And, this is the only pic I could get of her – she was so excited to go in all by herself that I had to beg her to turn around and hold still for a minute so I could snap her pretty face.

Colby is on the last day of his third week of school, and he is loving it.  I can’t say enough good things about his school.  This is his teacher, and I couldn’t be happier.  She’s organized (wahoo!!!) and positive (yay!) and also has a 1st grader (not in her own class), so she knows exactly what I’m going through right now.  Colby does very well academically.  He also gets bored and wants to know exactly how to succeed so he doesn’t get in trouble.

On another note, I need to teach Colby how to smile again. I think he thinks if he raises his eyebrows, it will make his smile bigger.  What a great kid.

And, I don’t have a pic of Carlee, but yesterday, since I only had Carlee, she and I went swimming after I taught my water aerobics class.  We about froze to death, since temperatures have only been in the 80s and the hurricane winds have cooled things down a bit too.  But we had a great time together and I don’t think I’ve ever heard her talk as much as I did today, when it was just the two of us!  Mondays, Wednesdays, and a lot of Fridays might just be her favorite mornings of the week.
