Can you believe it? Our lazy days at the pool are over and school is back in session! This year Hudson started K2 and Hannah K4. We made the commitment this year to hold Hudson back starting at K2. This will be a very good step for him to get acquainted with the school and give him another year to mature and develop before starting K3. He was so excited to go to school though. For two years he has begged to go inside the CEC to pick up Hannah and now he goes to the school with the "Yellow slide." We love our school. We love the closeness of a school that has 2 year olds to 18 year olds that nurture the relationships and students for all of those years. We love being a part of a school where we can cheer on a football team, attend a pep rally, or celebrate our birthday with a special birthday prayer in chapel.
Hannah is in the same classroom she was in last year with a lot of the same kids. I am not sure she recognizes that K4 is different from K3 or that it is different to have a new teacher. She walked right in, hung up her bag, and joined her friends just like she did last year like we just had a long break!
Hudson was thrilled to go to school! He walked in his class and started playing as if he had been there many times! He didn't even want to kiss us goodbye. There were other kids crying and there is a section of big 2's and little 2's. Hudson (although he is 3) is in the big two's. He has several little friends (there are quite a few boys in his class with sister's Hannah's age). He is just so much bigger than the rest of the kids. Some of the little girls hardly had any hair, they are that young. He has the same teachers Hannah had when she was in K2. She was shy and timid. Not Hudson, he is King of K2!
