First Grader!

Harry's so used to being at school, that yesterday's first day went off without a hitch. SO much so, that we seem to have just about overlooked it altogether!

No mystery ailments the night before, only subdued excitement... Harry and Kim had gone to the MacArthur open house last Friday to meet Harry's new teacher, and get a glimpse of his new classroom. Couple the report they both came home with, along with the consensus of neighbors who have either had the same teacher, or know someone who has, it sounds like we're in for another great year!

To paraphrase from one of the neighbors, "...you just need to be aware, you might be peaking a little early... you may not get a better teacher than this."

It's great to see him so excited about school, about his new teacher, about his new classroom, about his new classmates (oddly enough, with all of the new folks he's met over the summer, he only claims to already know 2 of his classmates), and all of the stuff this year will surely bring.

And it's quite contagious, as evidenced by Ainsley's love of her new environment at Abra... I think we can deal with that!
