a new year… a new list
We started a new school year today. I have 2 first graders and a pre-ker! I’m always amazed at where the times goes and how they grow so quickly.
Our day was full and busy. We were lazy first thing but once we got going, it was full speed. I wanted them to enjoy the “first day” and be excited about times to come.
One of the things I did with the kids today was to have them give me a list of things they want to learn and do this year. Last year the two older kids gave a list to me and it’s been on our playroom/homeschool room wall all year. We looked over it this summer and we were able to mark off most of the items!
I was overjoyed to see the list my cutie-patooties gave me! Wanna see? Here goes.
What I Want to Learn and Do This Year
reading

And the list goes on and on. I was smiling on the inside. I’m gonna have a great year!
