I feel as if I just blogged about this but I guess it's been a year! The more life goes on, the more I realize the "circle of life"!! No wonder I always feel confused and crazy...I just keep going in circles!! But, they are fun circles! We just finished our first week of school. I feel blessed to say, it was another good one (despite the attitude they are showing in the picture above) and we pray it continues. The boys seem to be happy in their classes and enjoying their teachers. Rylan jumps up out of bed quickly and ready to go each morning. After, the 15th, 'it's time to get up', Caden rolls out bed to the couch! Where again, I remind him to eat and put his shoes on! I know it is like this in most families, but how are kids with the same parents so different! I guess God wants us to experience it all! Despite their different approaches to the morning, they both go to school without any complaining which I am most thankful for and come home happy each day! Rylan has Mrs. Mayo for his 3rd grade teacher. Caden has Mrs. Lowry for first grade. Caden is excited to have the opportunity to attend music and PE class this year. He has looked forward to that for a while.
Rylan hopes to be able to join the Radical Ropers this year through his PE class. The Radical Ropers is a 3rd grade jump rope program where kids participate in performances around town. The school is being remodeled, which has made drop-off and pick-up a bit difficult. This week we chose to walk home each day instead of fighting the traffic. The video clip below I took as we walked home with our friends, Kerri, Wyatt and Kamille.
Rylan and his teacher
Caden liked the thought of laying in this bathtub in his classroom to read AR books!
