orientation

we said good bye to all our preschool teachers at Rainforest. we ran into Mrs. Maria, who was emmit's very first caregiver, on our way out the door. talk about ironic! then onto South Loop Elementary School for kindergarten orientation. emmit was lucky and ended up with 3 of his friends in his class this year. 





first day of kindergarten!

emmit LOVED his first day of school! he learned, you can't shout out; you have to raise your hand and you can't go to the bathroom while we're learning.  bottom caption: IT WAS AWESOME!





2nd day of kindergarten

 tuesdays is gym class day. he needs to wear a gym uniform on tuesdays. Ms Benitone shuffled some seats around because a few of the boys had "too much fun" on their first day. hahaha! better than tears!! below is emmit pointing out his new friend omar:  MOM- THIS IS THE GUY I WAS TELLING YOU WAS SO FUNNY.

coloring

emmit got mail the other day- from gramee and grandpa! they mailed him a picture they colored with his favorite things. in return, they sent out a couple of blank coloring pages for emmit to color for them, along with an envelope to mail back. he colored them promptly and the very next day emmit and micah rode bikes to the post office and mailed the envelope back to STL. 

presents ❣

thank you for the just because package, aunt barb

the office

I laughed when I saw micah's note BOARD while visiting one day, I HAD to snap a picture. well, it's a good thing I did: someone about 40 inches high came over and erased the bottom portion of notes.

eye exam for school

have you gotten an eye exam lately? the doc asked emmit to read the bottom line of the card and he did. then he showed me the bottom line: I couldn't even squint to read it.  he said that is normal. emmit passed with a BETTER THAN AVERAGE diagnosis!
