today was the first day of school for both of our big kids! (lately i find myself referring to them as "the big kids" and ezzie as "the baby.") this year begins second grade for noah and kindergarten for isla.
isla has been looking forward to kindergarten at evergreen since we attended the open house in march. she cried when we left that night, saying she wanted to go to school there the next day. after a long spring and summer, finally, finally, her dream has come true! she was very happy to settle in this morning, and said goodbye to me without even looking up from her play. she is going to be just fine with this transition!
noah was a little hesitant as he went to bed last night, but i think that he was mostly sad at summer ending and our fun few weeks of vacation time being over. i feel that way too. (aaron says noah and i are similar in our struggles with transitions and the endings of things. isla and aaron, however, are always raring to go!) noah settled in this morning, though, and seemed excited about his new class and seeing his friends again.
i am confident both kids are going to have a great year. their school is such a great place!
