We've Begun the 180 Day Count Down Again!

Well, we've begun another school year! I can't believe our big guy is in the Fourth Grade this year! (sniff, sniff) He had to move off my hall this year...He's already loving BOTH his teachers! He likes that he gets to change classrooms halfway through the day.

Logan got to come to my school this week for the 4K screening (Thursday). It was scheduled during my planning time so I got to meet him and Roger for it! They took him in the room, and we stayed out in the hallway to fill out the papers. I, of course, peeked in the window and he seemed to be doing great! They came out with him about 25 minutes later, and we thought he was done...until we saw the tears! We still aren't sure what made him upset (he said he had a tummyache), but he did go back in (with Daddy too!) and finished. The teacher testing him told Roger that Logan was the only kid to get ALL the rhyming words right! So....WAHOO for him there, but AHHHH that means he won't get to come to my school with me! We got the bittersweet phone call on Friday afternoon saying, "While it was a pleasure to meet Logan, he scored too high to qualify for our 4K program..."

Really, I knew the chances of him getting in based on scores was VERY slim because he is smart (if I say so myself), but I was REALLY hoping he'd be able to come to save me an HOUR of time every morning!!! So, looks like another year of waking up before 5 AM for me....but, on the flip side of that....this means he gets to go to Springdale and be in Mrs. Merri's class!!!! YEAH! She was WONDERFUL with Austin, and I can't wait to help jump start Logan's education there in the same way! We have Orientation on September 2nd...after Logan's allergy doctor appointment (which we are NOT looking forward to either!!!).

This morning we also had the remainder of Austin's first football game. We actually started it on Tuesday, and part way through the 2nd Quarter the bottom fell out the sky, or maybe I should say the rain was exploded out by the EXTREME lightning....so we had to continue the game this morning! Austin's team won 18-6 (with the 2nd and 3rd string mostly playing today)! Go Wolverines!!!

This time I have pictures I have been taking for the posts, but I left my camera in my classroom....ugh! I am soon going to invest in a better camera for home, and then I can just leave the other one at school! So, no pictures to post this time...but I will try to get on here again this week to put some on here! We've been REALLY busy with football and school, but so far, so good!!!!!
