First Day of School 2008

It is hard to believe that Back to School is upon us. We were fortunate to have a very care-free summer so I am a bit sad to lose that freedom. Olivia is entering the first grade at Talbot Elementary and Grant is off to PreK-3 at First Presbyterian. Olivia loves school and is very ready. Grant spent three weeks at his new school in a camp program this summer so he is familiar with his teacher and classroom. There are only 8 kids in Grant's class and many only go half days which is perfect for him. We met Olivia's teacher last Friday and we like her - she seems to be a warm person, which I think is important at this age. But mostly what excites Olivia about this year is that her good friend Thalia is in class with her, as well as a few other girlfriends. So, while I forewarned the teacher about Olivia's gift of gab with friends, I'm afraid Olivia would talk to the wall if she had to.
Here's to a great school year...
