1st grade and more firsts





If anyone remembers my post from the first day of kindergarten then you can appreciate the first day of first grade as a huge improvement. There were smiles and no crying and at the end of it we celebrated with milk and mint Oreos. With first grade has come other firsts:
1. Getting a red card the second week of school. (phone call home and everything)
2. Blaming the red card on the new girl who sits across from him, "She's so pretty!"
3. Bringing home his first phone number.
4. Wanting to call his first phone number, "to see if it really works"
5. Telling me his teacher is nice. (coming from Noah this is a huge compliment!)

Ella Joy and I walk to the bus stop every afternoon to meet Noah. Ella Joy gets so excited when she see the big yellow bus coming around the corner. I just love the two of them together!

Love kindergarten!! I don't remember phone numbers, crushes and all of that starting so early when I was young!! It's cute to watch your kids start all of that. The best is when they come home singing "Ms Suzy had a steamboat...." and they are AMAZED that you know that 'new song'!
