We Are Rockin' the New School Year

I can't believe we have just finished the forth week of the new school year. Wow, has it flown by! McLain is now in third grade, which I think was a little harder on me than on him. I know that third is the first grown up grade and that he is finished with the primary part of his education forever. :( Despite his mother's sadness, McLain loves third grade and adores his teacher. I have to hunt him up every day and drag him out of her class, so we can go home. I think she may be his first crush.

Two weeks after McLain and I went back to school, Keaton began his second year at McEachern UM's MMO. I can't tell you how excited I was at sneak-a-peek to learn that his teacher from last year was going to be his teacher again. Keaton loves his Mrs. Maria! He has not shed a tear once at drop off, which is really comforting. When he was leaving MMO this past Thursday, Keaton even insisted on kissing both his teachers goodbye. I know he's a happy boy if he's sharing his kisses!

I have once again been blessed with a great class, even though I know I'm past due for a crazy one! My class consists of 16 kiddos that keep me smiling and laughing all day long. I can't imagine having a better job than being a second grade teacher. Hopefully, I'll still feel this way 25 years from now. :)
