It's late summer now and time for school to start!
Here is Madi working at home on some coloring. She loves drawing, coloring, and writing her letters. We decided that even though she is only four and a half years old, it probably was best for her to start school.
With her teacher, Mrs. Smith (no, I'm not making that up).
Henry is still around too, of course. The Roses say he is a lot more talkative and doing a lot more on his own now that Madi isn't there. Apparently she did a lot of the talking and led him around by the hand.
So yesterday, she started kindergarten at Cache Valley Learning Center (CLVC). Here she is all ready to leave the first morning.
Walking in to school for the first time as a student there ...
In the hall. Her classroom is at the end, behind her.
Taking off her backpack to hang up in the hall outside her class.
She was so comfortable in the classroom. Henry and Tim and I all went to see her off. I asked for a hug, and she said "I'm hugging my family now because they are leaving." We took the hint. She had a great day! She loves it so far.
Here she is after her second day. Still loving it.
Henry is still around too, of course. The Roses say he is a lot more talkative and doing a lot more on his own now that Madi isn't there. Apparently she did a lot of the talking and led him around by the hand.
His asthma is now under control and we don't have to do the nebulizer every day any more. At least until he gets another cold probably.
It feels like it has been a busy year already, and we're just two days in to school!

It's fantastic that Madi is enjoying school so much! And it is also great that Henry is blossoming at the Rose's now that he's on his own:-)
Glad that Madi is loving kindergarten and Henry is enjoying his freedom. I certainly remember how liberating it was when my older sister would move on to a different school (although it was still embarassing when some of them called me "Tina"). It sounds like Madi was certanly ready to start school and I'm sure she wil continue to do wonderfully.
Love,
Uncle James
