2 more days until we're "back in the saddle again". (Yes, Biggie, I know this song because of you.)
Tomorrow is open house and a meet and greet type of thing. We're definitely going since I've never even met the 1st grade teacher. I know her name and John David says she's very nice. She's been teaching for 15 years so she's experienced.
Earlier in the summer, John David would groan if I told him how many more days until school started again. But not anymore. He's so excited. First grade is apparently such a big deal. Mainly, it means no more nap times. We all keep telling him that one day he will wish he could have a nap, but he does not see the luxury in it at 6 years old. I think that maybe you get to have a desk in first grade also, instead of a group table. Wow. That is important. There's some other perks too, but I'm not privy to them at this point. I'm sure I'll be informed soon enough.....
I was always so happy when school ended and dreaded when it started up again. I did enjoy my boys! I guess a better word is LOVED 'em! Funny - I still do.....
ReplyDeleteBeing in 1st grade is a huge deal. It's one of his many steps into "Man Hood". Plus I think they start having homework. Jason had it 3 nights a week. In 2nd it was 20 minutes worth every night. I'm sure it'll be the same in 3rd...wow. Third grade already...
ReplyDeletePrivy. That is a very grown up word. You are such a grown up.
ReplyDeleteI saw your comment somewhere that you are almost 30. That has got to hurt..ouch. For those of us a whole year younger. We do not use words like privy, or speak of the so far away, world of 30. I guess I have alot to look forward to next year.
(o.k. so my b.d. is in October, at that point I will allow you to lump me into the late 20's category and we can plan out our retirements)
JK..of course
I don't know what comment you're talking about. Almost 30??? I think not. I'm so young, I still smell like a baby.
ReplyDeleteBesides, privy is not a grown-up word. It is a smart word. So there. I'm smart and young. Don't hate me.
You are smart. You have managed to keep your wits about you, even at your age...
