First day of school!

Rand and Ella both started school on Monday. Rand is in kindergarten, and Ella is loving going to preschool....most of the time. On her first morning she walked right up to the door, asked "Can I go in now?" and when I said yes, walked right in without a backwards glance.

She did get in trouble on her 2nd day of school for kicking Rand under the table at lunch, kicking her teacher when she was told that she couldn't do that, and then for screaming when she got in trouble for kicking the teacher. Yes, she is a bit stubborn, but I have no idea where she gets it from.

Rand is thrilled that he can stay all day and doesn't have to leave right after lunch. He always wanted to do stay for the afternoon's dictation lesson last year, so he is excited that he is finally is a part of it! His prayer last night was that he would do well in school and learn how to write better so he could get his work done faster.
