School Daze

The summer flew by...well really, it is STILL summer isn't it? I don't think I will ever get used to starting school in mid-August!

So it's here....really....already....

It's official - we have a First Grade Beech Hill Beacon! Winston woke up ready for the day and walked into that classroom like he owned it. I fared better than last year but choked back a tear walking out.

We are excited about the year that lies ahead -- he's got a great teacher, Miss Luciano. She is enthusiastic, has a reputation for being tons of fun and loves science and math - the perfect combination for our boy.

So in a few hours, we'll have ourselves a little First Day of School party along the walking path to keep with tradition and then start fishing for information from our Beacons about their first day back in the groove.

As for school, Lilly's up next....tomorrow is meet the teacher and she begins her last year of preschool on Wednesday. There is no doubt many a tear will fall in the spring when we wrap up our tenure with the greatest preschool on the planet - I cannot say enough about the Bethany Child Development Center - we look forward to another great year there.

We have our first Parent's Meeting for Sertoma football tonight. Joe is an Assistant Coach for Winston's team - he will be a....drum roll please......a PACKER!! Practice begins tomorrow night and games should start soon.

We are ready for our favorite season of the year....football season, falling leaves, pumpkins, turkeys, all of it.....can't wait for Autumn!
