Willem started his 2nd year in the Primary classroom today. Last week he was unsure about going back to school and was voting to just stay home and play trains but over the weekend the anticipation continued to build and he became excited about school again. He is quite proud to be able to stay all day like the kindergartners and is looking forward to painting in the outdoor environment. Going over the school lunch menu helped as well and he has decided to once again to opt for school lunches over Mom packed lunches. I wonder why (corn dogs, nachos, chicken fingers. not sure if he's going to a carnival or school, but if it gets him to love school we'll roll with it)
Last night as I was tucking him into bed he said, "Mom, I'm just so excited about school tomorrow". He got dressed quickly this morning and came to my room at 5:40am ready for school:) Hoping this excitement continues.
Jason's on nights right now which worked out beautifully as he was able to get home just in time to take pictures and take Willem to school with Ellie and I.
Ellie insisting on wearing Willem's shoes.
Willem was excited to see his friends.
Back into the swing of things, Ellie nabbed Maddy's leftovers. Ellie is part of the gang at school breakfast.
Jason, Ellie and I went to pick Willem up at the end of the day and he was still jazzed about school. He said he'd played with his friend Madison, had a new lesson and ate the yummy oranges that he loves. All in a good days work!
