First Day Of School...


 





















Man summer went by fast this year.  Although some days felt longer than other, the past 2 1/2 months flew by. 
Today, Ava began 1st grade, Dillon began 3rd grade, and Liliana is beginning her final year of elementary school in 6th grade.
All 3 kids were excited for their first day, all 3 woke up nice and early eager to get to school, and all 3 were anxious to ditch me when I dropped them off and tried to take a few pictures before the bell rang. 
When I picked them up from school, they all wanted to talk over each other.  Liliana anxious to share information about her 2 night 3 day science camp field trip, Dillon about a few familiar faces are in his class this year, and Ava...
Oh my Ava, she insisted on telling me about her teacher.  Apparently, her teacher shared about herself and one of those facts stood out for Ava. 

Ava: "Mommy, Mrs Doutrich told us about herself today to show us what we are suppose to do when we are picked for trailblazer of the week.  Guess what she told us?"

Me: " I have no idea, what?"

Ava: "Mrs. Doutrich and Mr. Doutrich (another teacher at our school)... are married
*covers her mouth and innocently giggles*

Me: "Was that the coolest thing she told you about herself?"

Ava: "Yeahup!"

Oh the things that amuse a 6 year old!


The verdict is... it appears as though all 3 kids are happy to be back in school, happy with their teachers, and happy to share bits and pieces about their days!
