Dillon was first off, starting on Aug. 24th. He's attending Trinity Lutheran School, in the Alternative Kindergarten program. It's essentially kindergarten for young 5's - kids with summer birthdays who for whatever reason are being held back. It's every day, but mornings only. (Their kindergarten program is all day, every day) We've decided to hold Dillon back and not start true kindergarten until next year, partially because of social reasons (he is still one crazy little boy!), but mostly because he's just so small for his age - always the smallest in the class. He is still the smallest in his Alt-K class, but at least when he starts K, he will at least have his age going for him! And, he should be more mature, we're hoping that will give him a better start to his school career... Anyway, long story short, he was very excited to start!
First job of the morning - hang up your backpack in your locker!
Next, sign in...
Finally, give brother a hug and wish him a good day!
Three weeks later, Owen finally got to start his preschool. He has been waiting a very long time for this day! He's been trying to be a big boy for so long now!
Their first day and first several weeks have been a success - they seem to be enjoying school and are making new friends every day. It's so wonderful to see them growing and learning so quickly - just a pure joy. Love these little guys!!
