The Start of FIRST Grade and the End of T-Ball

Ian's 1st grade teacher is...

Mrs. Harris!!!!!!!!!

We went to Meet the Teacher at Ian's school this afternoon when Cailean got home from work. We found Ian's name by Mrs. Harris' door, so we didn't have to walk very far! She seems wonderful and I've heard great things about her last year, so we are very excited. You can't really go wrong with any of the 1st grade teachers because they are outstanding! There are a few kids from his Kindergarten class in with him, so he does know a few...but also he recognized a few more names from the other K classes. He is a bit bummed that his best friend, Luke, isn't with him. But, the teachers told him that he'll get to see Luke at recess (I guess the teachers told Luke the same thing!!!). He found his seat and cubby while we were filling out paperwork. Then, we walked on down to his old room and visited with Mrs. Geiger and the other teachers. Ian was wearing his t-ball uniform since we had the game right after. All the teachers and staff who saw him were telling him good luck tonight and all that. It was cute!

So yes...today seemed to be the last summer day! For Ian anway. The boys went to play with Ben and Luke while I went to my meeting at work in the morning. They had a GREAT time, of course. We came home, had lunch and then met them at Monkey Joe's for an afternoon of fun. We waited for Cailean to get home around 4pm or so and then headed over to Kingswood. Then, his last t-ball game ever!!!!! He played well and had some great hits! At the end, the kids received their trophies! Great work Cailean on choosing the trophy! He took care of all that for the team.

Cross your fingers that Ian does fine in the morning as we get ready for school!!!! :)
