Last week started all the back to school activities for Nina and Lyla. For Lyla, it was out last elementary “Meet the Teacher” morning. I think I was more sad about it than she was. Our elementary school has been such a wonderful place for both Nina and Lyla. It’s a great school and a wonderful community that is so close to our house, and I’ll be sad to see our days at Legacy Elementary come to an end. Lyla WAS very excited though for this year. She got the teacher she most wanted (and almost every other 5th grader wants) this year. His name is Mr. Rice. There are eight 5th grade classes, so sometimes it’s hard to get the teacher you hoped for, but she felt very excited to get her to choice this year!
The first day of school was Thursday, August 23rd, and both girls had a great first day! They like their classes, their teachers, and everything has fallen into a good rhythem so far (although we’re only a week in to the school year at this point). We’re hoping for a wonderful year for the girls. It’s just hard to believe that we’re already sending off 5th and 7th graders! Where has the time gone?????
(On a side note: Cayenne loves her job of helping get the girls up in the morning and walking Lyla to the bus and greeting her on the way home, but I know she misses the company of these two during the day!)
