It seems like just last week the boys were getting out of school for the summer and here we are, one week away from starting back. We brought out all the supplies we had bought a few weeks ago and got busy labeling. . . all 48 crayons, and that was just Kade's, all the markers, rulers, pens, pencils, folders, etc. We are to bring the supplies to meet the teacher on Thursday which will allow them to be ready to go on Monday.
Funny thing is, I woke up with a nervous feeling this morning and the only reason I can think of this occurring is because it is their last week of summer, along with all the stresses of starting a new school year. I guess I have the butterflies this week because I will have to calm their nerves next week.
What is there to be nervous about??? Well, Kade will be in Kindergarten all day as opposed to half a day in PreK, and he's stressing nap time (boy would I love to have a nap time). There's no more athletic (elastic waist) shorts for Noah except in athletic class which he will have to change for. He will now have to wear shorts with belt loops, tuck his shirt, and wear a belt. This he will not enjoy because he hates to tuck.
The school is going to a new reading program for Kinder through 6th grade. This shouldn't be too bad for Kade starting at the beginning, but Noah will be in the 5th grade and will have to learn all that is acquired of the new program.
