School Update

Noah has officially stopped verbalizing his dislike for school. He still needs to be lifted off of his bunk bed to start him off for the day, but at least once he is up and going he is good to go. Will and Noah just love being in Mrs. McDuffie's class. Their friend, Emma, had her and liked her so much that they just had to follow in her foot steps. They are very excited to have binders. They think they are hot stuff on campus now that they have them. It is hard to convince them to keep them in their book bags, as they want to show them off!

Ethan is very excited about his new class. He is reading a novel with his teacher and they are following the rules to become a perfect person in just three days. He takes his assignments very seriously. Today is no electronics, so he is playing Battle Ship with Noah and helping me cook dinner. I don't have to follow the rules, so I'm using the stove and oven!

Hanzie and Abby have slowly adjusted to us being away for the day. Hanzie brings fewer and fewer of my items out into the living room to cuddle with each day. Thankfully, he doesn't chew anything, just lays with it all. I wonder how many trips he makes back and forth between my room and the living room each day. I really need to set up the web cam so I can spy on him!

I started meeting with my groups today. The days are much more fun and fly by when I have groups! I gave them two days to settle into their rooms and routine and now we are off. I think it is going to be a great year!
