She was super excited! Out of the 3 2nd grade teachers there was only one that Lexi was convinced that she would be happy with and she was lucky enough to get her!
Rayden was stressed when Lexi left that first day. He kept asking when he got to start school and why he wasn't going with Lexi. But the first week of school they do the kindergarten assessment. I admit that I was a little stressed and worried about how Rayden would do. He fights me every step of the way when it comes to school stuff. He surprised me by knowing almost everything that he was asked. Halelujah, he isn't behind!!!!!
He was so excited when he got around to his 1st day, and for the 1st time since my kids started school we did not have a brand new teacher. Not that there was anything bad about the new teachers, we loved them, but it is a nice change this year.
Simon also had a 1st experience. It was the 1st time he realized that he was being left out of something. We walked Rayden to school the first day and when we started heading home Simon got all upset. I ended up standing with the crossing guard for around 20 minutes trying to convince Simon to calm down and that he couldn't go to school. It was not a happy day for him and he still insists everyday that he needs to go to school so......
....here is Simon's 1st day! Yesterday we loaded up his backpack with lots of toys and snacks and we headed to the school. Simon was so exciteded. He walked the entire way by himself and didn't complain. No, he isn't in preschool but I volunteered to help out in Lexi's classroom once a week and it started yesterday. Simon was in heaven sitting with all those second graders and getting to look at their books and color on scrap paper. I am hoping that once a week school will keep this little guy happy this year. It is quite the adjustment being the one left behind, especially when he doesn't realize that he is littler than his brother and sister.
