Katelynn - 10th grade
She leaves the house at 5:55am every morning. She has seminary from 6-7am and then she is in the "Music and Motion" group(dance and singing group) and they meet from 7 -8am and then she goes through the rest of her day. She amazes me at being able to get up every morning and doing it pretty cheerfully. I know she loves Music and Motion. She is also taking drivers training this fall. They meet Monday and Wednesday from 3-5pm. Those are really long days. She is doing great.
She started at the same school and about 2 weeks into the school year she started talking about transferring schools to the elementary school that is close to new home. We let her decide. We knew it was a big decision to leave a school that you have been at since Kindergarten. After much thought and prayer, she decided to transfer and it has been awesome. She loves her teachers and hasn't looked back once. She knows that she will see her good friends from the other school when they get to the middle school.
Matthew - 7th grade
Matt began the year playing the alto saxophone and was given the opportunity to play 1 of 2 baritone saxaphones. He loves to play it and would love to be able to bring it home to show us, but since it is bigger than him, he just leaves it there. We are looking forward to his first concert so we get to see what it looks like.
Daniel - Home preschool with mom
We are enjoying our time together each day. We enjoy going to the library. During the first week of school, a friend of mine and her daughter came with us and we rode the city bus and rode into the city and went to the Children's Museum. We had a picnic in the park and then ride the bus back. They both loved the day.
