The girls were very, very excited for their first day of school! We practiced some lessons last week and that went well. This weekend Tony and Ellie put together a desk and a bookshelf for school. Ellie sat at the finished desk on Saturday and asked if we could do school right then! Earlier we walked to the stationary store and bought a binder for the girls to hold their math work and we bought a pencil holder for Ellie's new desk. They carried all these items in their backpacks so proudly; there's nothing like buying new school supplies! I picked out outfits from their bins to wear on the first day of school and the girls squealed with delight when they saw them!
I was nervous about the first day of school because and I didn't want to dissapoint the girls; they were so looking forward to their First Day! The day started with an orientation to our "classroom" and I came up with a couple of craft ideas to go along with their regular school work. We fumbled through the lessons (I'm still learning the K12 stuff, it has a lot of things to learn); I think the girls had fun, they seemed excited to tell dad all about their day!
Hi girls, it is pastor Marc and I am so excited for you to start school! The boys and girls have also started here in Richland. We miss you on Sundays and Wednesdays here at church. I sent your mom some new church lessons and activities to enjoy. We love you! Grace!
