Here We Go Again!

Last night we visited both Parkway and Lawndale for their Open Houses. I can't believe I will be running between two schools this year! Cole was excited to walk the halls of his new school. The layout of the school is identical to that of Parkway, so hopefully we won't get lost! We saw many familiar friends and met several new faces. Cole is ready to make the big move even if his Mommy and Daddy aren't! We found Ms. West's room and he was so glad to see his buddy, Jackson, seated in a desk right next to his. The best part of all...Ms. West is a former Parkway teacher so we already knew her. This is going to be a great year!

Next, we braved through the rain and school traffic to go to Parkway. Mary Conlee is thrilled to have Mrs. Marlin, just as Cole did in 1st grade. And best of all--Katelyn and Dalton are at her table. How could life get any better? MC loved her room and said, "Mommy, can you believe I'm going to be a first grader?" It's almost impossible to imagine, but it's true! After visiting MC's new room, we had to pay visits to all the "old" teachers, Mrs. Farned and Mrs. Godwin. They will all hold a special place in our hearts. We are going to enjoy the last two days of rest, relaxtion, and sleeping late before school begins on Friday. Are we ready for this? You bet!
