First Three Days of School

It's hard to believe these four special ladies started school this week.  Major milestone for all of us.

Sophie Rose:  


1.  Tell me about the best part of the school day:  Snack and recess.

2.  What was the hardest thing you had to do all week:  First day of school.  I didn't know what to expect.

3.  What are some names of your classmates:  Damaris and Douglas and Otto and Edgar and Amanda

4.  What did you learn to say in Spanish this week:  Oh so much.  The kids who know only Spanish will write words or phrases down on a piece of paper for me.  Then the kids who know a little English will translate it for me.

5.  What surprised you about school:  All the kids want to get to know me!  It's really fun.  I am sure it's just because I am different right now but I like it.

6.  What do you want to be when you grow up:  Occupational Therapist



Annabelle Joy:


1.  Tell me about the best part of the school day:  I like recess.  I played basketball with some other girls.

2.  What was the hardest thing you had to do all week:  I have to complete a 10 page essay due next week.  It's on the independence of America.

3.  What are some names of your classmates:  Nicole, Ana, Fatima, Michelle

4.  What did you learn to say in Spanish this week:  Verdan which means true and tarde which means late.

5.  What was something funny that happened:  One of the boys was pretending he was flying in front of the fan.  It was pretty funny.

6.  What do you miss about being at home during the school day:  Going to the bathroom whenever I need to!  Also, I have to ask the teacher for toilet paper and then she takes some pieces off and gives it to me.  Kinda gross.

7.  What do you want to be when you grow up:  Lawyer


Ava Mae:


1.  Tell me about the best part of the school day:  Making friends!

2.  What was the hardest thing you had to do all week:  Today I had to write a story that was 8 sentences long.  I wrote about a firefighter.

3.  What are some names of your classmates:  Lia and a bunch of other girls.

4.  What did you learn to say in Spanish this week:  Tranquila.  It means calm down in Spanish.  My friends say it when I am running around!  (Mama's reaction:  Sigh.)

5.  What was something funny that happened:  Nothing funny happened really but there are just really funny kids at my school.

6.  What do you miss about being at home during the school day:  You.  (Mama's reaction:  warms my heart!)

7.  What do you want to be when you grow up:  I want to work in a restaurant.  Maybe I'll be a waitress and serve food.


Pearl Elizabeth:


1.  Tell me about the best part of the school day:  Coloring!

2.  What was the hardest thing you had to do all week:  Probably math.  They are doing times tables.

3.  What are some names of your classmates:  Tasha and Ana.

4.  What did you learn to say in Spanish this week:  Papa and Mama.

5.  What was something funny that happened:  A boy kept tapping me for no reason and he kept saying, "Pearl, Pearl, Pearl."

6.  What do you like about your teacher:  She is nice and she got Annabelle out of class because she had my lunch in her backpack.

7.  What do you want to be when you grow up:  I want to be a preschool teacher. 



Love these girls.

Love the boys, too.

Joseph and Jude have been MAJOR troopers.  Jude has missed nap time and walked at least 4 miles each day to the girls' school and back.  His little legs are moving super fast which is quite adorable.  I am pretty sure Joseph misses his BFF (Sophie) and all the quality time she spends with him.

So very thankful.
