A New School Year

August 26, 2013
It's the start of another school year.  It's when kids are excited to be another grade bigger, and parents are glad they're back in school again :)  

We actually had a wonderful summer break - my kids played well together and kept busy with swimming lessons, volleyball, and hanging out with the cousins.  

We were thrilled to discover that all 3 school-age kids had been accepted to Somerset Academy.  They couldn't wait to meet their teachers...   

Natalya Reeve, 4th grade
Loves swimming, volleyball, and playing the piano 

Branson Reeve, 2nd grade
Loves basketball, football, and Sports Center on ESPN


Irelynn Reeve, Kindergarten
Loves reading, gymnastics, and arts and crafts 


Annika Reeve, not in school
Loves not being left out of a photo opportunity!

One last hug before we leave for school-


We dropped Branson off first at Mrs. Borgersen's 2nd grade class.   


Then we went upstairs to...

 ...drop Natalya off at Mrs. Lamb's 4th grade class.


Finally, we took Irelynn to Mrs. Moore's Kinder class.  (She's waving 'bye' in the picture above.) 

I'm so proud of my big kids!  They were champs on their first day of school and all had a great experience.  I loved hearing about the new friends they made and who sat next to them at lunch.  They all seemed to love their new teachers and couldn't wait go to bed to do it all over again.  

I'm glad that my kids love school.  They all LOVE to read.  They enjoy learning new things and challenging themselves.  I love that they're endlessly curious and thirst for a higher understanding.  What great kids!!
