Today is Jared's last day of second grade! Hard to believe that eight years ago, I was teaching second grade. With the move and everything that has been going on this year, the school year has flown by!
Mrs. M has told me all year what a good kid he is- and it's true. We are very proud of Jared! He got an award yesterday for having straight A's all year long, and for being a "facts master". He also got a "fairness award" in his class. He was disappointed that he didn't get the "quiet worker award", too- no fair! (tee hee) We have loved all of the teachers at SV, and we will miss it next year. (Our new neighborhood is zoned to a different elementary school). I am a little sad that Lauren will not get to have any of Jared's old teachers, but I know we will love the new school just as much, and it's much closer! Jared is great at making new friends and I am sure he will do fine- and it's not like we won't see his old friends again...plus, I used to WORK at this school, so I know a few people, too! One chapter ends, another begins...
Lauren adores school. (She and a set of triplets were the only girls in the class this year.) She is already reading sight words and last night, she counted to 49! Since she has a Sept. birthday, she has one more year until Kindergarten. I think she is ready academically, but socially one more year will do her a world of good. She is becoming more confident everyday, and her speech is getting more understandable- so by next year, she'll be super ready! (And it will be so cool to have them both at the same school!)

I think time is flying way toooo fast. I am so glad that things are going so well for you all in Texas.
Ashlyn had these same teachers in pre-school and we loved them too. Simply the best!
