Happy New Year!

This time of year is always what I count as the "new" year. Everything is new! Pencils, notebooks, shoes, clothes, backpacks, teachers and students. January is actually just in the middle of it all, so for me it doesn't really count.

Today, our "new" is that DJ is a 4th grader and Nick is a brand new Kindergardener! We started the day with cinnamon rolls and ended with traditional ice cream. We saw our friends and sweetly ushered in our new year.

It seems like just a moment ago Nick was crawling over the threshold of DJ's kindergarten classroom. Today he walked across proudly into his own room full of adventure. We are truly blessed!
