Well, not for Emily it hasn't... not officially. As her big sister Alyssa is doing work I plan to have work for her also, although our entire day is always filled with something educational. She wanted to put a backpack on though and carry it herself, and wanted to march herself on in to the school. It's where we did go next, and as a teacher filled out a form for Alyssa to take a dictionary home with her Emily crawled on up and sat in one of the desks.... ready to start.
My two oldest children are attending school out of this "alternative" school building - brand new, state of the art teaching equipment, three alternative programs, and a group of incredible teachers. I feel so bless that we have such an option available here and that it's a perfect fit for two of my children.
Katie, just entering 1st grade, was enrolled in to the main public school this year and came hope beaming after her first day. I suspect it too is the perfect fit for her learning style.
And Emily? Emily I believe will follow Katie in her foot steps, and push to be challenged. She already is well ahead of herself, I hope I can live up to the challenge and continue to keep her challenged! I bet I can :)
Waving bye-bye to mom
