Emery's first official day isn't until September 3rd, but today she had to go in for her kindergarten testing. 
Mitch was surprisingly patient and nice for pictures. Emery was so excited and he was excited for her.
He was really cute telling her where she will line up, play etc.
We met (cousins) Ben and Nick in front of the school.
Then Emery went in for her 45 minute test...
This is her teacher, Ms. Larsen.
Emery was so excited to greet Mitch when he came home. She thought he was running in for a hug, but he was just celebrating the fact that his teacher is not giving any homework for two weeks!
But she still got a hug.
I decided to make my kids write in a journal every day after school (so much for no homework) and this is what they had to say.......
Emery - "I went to school today. I had to take a test. It was awesome. My teacher is Ms. Larsen. She is cool."
Mitch -"Today I started fifth grade. I have the diggibomb teacher. Her name is Mrs. Bodtcher. She is the diggibomb teacher because she gives no homework for the first two weeks of school and she is super nice. I sit by Moises and Trevor. I am excited for this year because I had a mean, lousy, rude, bad and a terrible teacher last year."
(I had to stop him and give him a lecture about that ending.)
I can't believe both of our sons are in 5th grade. It's crazy. Your kids are so cute. Noah didn't like his teacher at all last year either but this year seems like it will be much better. We still need to get our sons together sometime. Where do you live?
ReplyDeleteMitch's entry is halarious and that you said you had to end it. Hee! Hee! I can't believe our babies are growing up!
