Kate started Kindergarten this year. It's been quite a change for all of us
but she has adjusted well and is really enjoying it...even if she won't admit it.
Her favorite class is music. (I have no idea where that comes from!)
Kate's LOVES her teacher, Mrs. Glassco. She likes to come home and play school
and pretend that she is Mrs. Glassco and Sam and Alice are her students. She has them do
"circle time" and reminds them to sit "criss-cross applesauce with your hands to yourselves."
After her first day of school, Kate excitedly told me that her teacher claps in rhythm
(clap, clap, clap-clap-clap) then the class repeats it.
Then disappointedly said, "But then we have to listen."
Kate tends to be the ring leader with the games and activities the kids play at home during the day...
...so it was quite an adjustment when she started school, especially for Sam.
For the first few weeks, he would say, "I miss Kate," at least 5 or 6 times during the school day.
But he has learned to come up with some pretty creative things to do without Kate.
And he's even learned that it's lots of fun to play with Alice.
They are quite a silly little pair together. Sam kind of gets to call the shots while they play
(like Kate usually does). But Alice definitely speaks up when she doesn't approve!

Mrs. Glasco used to teach at Centennial. none of my kiddos had her, but they definitely loved her and were sad to learn she was moving to another school last year! She's a treasure of a teacher... Kate is very lucky! It is an adjustment to have any kid go off to school, but what blessings come from that trial... the other kids learn to love each other and grow! It's amazing!
love these kids!!!
YEAH!!!! I missed you so much, it is so good to see you are back with the blogging world. I have been wondering about Kate in Kindergarten, I am so glad she enjoys it!!! Miss you, and I can't wait to hear more.
