Schools back in session

Ava and Quinn had their first days of school this week. Ava started 1st Grade with her new teacher Mrs. Emmons on Monday. She had a great day and was excited for hot lunch-beef tacos. She forgot her water bottle in the classroom so she used her "credit number" to order a chocolate milk. I told that was fine it was good that she was able to get something to drink. At dinner she told me that she did not want to eat the carrots I served her because she had some at school.  I said that I did not send carrots in her lunch. Ava said she used her "credit number" to buy them. Thank God you can't buy purses, shoes or clothes with the "credit number". Brent had to explain to her about the "credit number" and that she is only to buy what we have discussed the night before.

Quinn started Kindergarten on Wednesday this week. He is so excited to have Mrs. Lamoreaux because she was Ava's interim teacher last year. He met three new friends and said that school was AWESOME. They read a Clifford book, went out for recess and went through all the rules of the classroom. I asked Quinn if he wanted me to walk him into class and he said, "No Mommy I am just fine." He is such a brave boy.
