Now In Session

Today was the first day of second grade for Luke and first grade for Eli.  We thought they were going to be together in a combined first-second grade class, which Eli was pretty pumped about. As it turned out, there were too many first graders, so Eli is in the combined first-second class and Luke ended up being put in a combined second-third class.  He was thrilled with the fact that he would be with his upper-classmates from last year, and Eli was okay with it because he knew one of his friends from last year would be in his class with him. They were, according to them, absolutely not ready and completely bummed that summer was finished.  

I love Eli's teacher, who has been Luke's teacher for the past two years.  I don't know Luke's teacher yet, but he says she's one of the two best teachers in the whole school.  From my communication with her, I get the impression she loves God and feels like teaching is a gift to her.  Which will be a gift to our family.  I'm definitely praying for these two ladies.

School may be in session...

 But summer is a state of mind!
