Back to School (Part 7): Day One (Again)!

Hello, friends! 

Who's that good looking boy enjoying his first day of in person kindergarten? Why, I believe it's Ezra! 


After one false start, a few weeks of completely virtual learning, and days of anticipation, Ezra was finally able to attend school. He'll be going into class every Thursday and Friday, as well as alternating Wednesdays. Here are a few takeaways from everyone's first day:

- Ezra LOVES it so far. When Megan and I picked him up, you could actually see the glow on his face. He was so excited and wouldn't stop talking all the way home about all the things he did. To be honest, the excitement started as soon as he got up. There was no trepidation from him when he walked into the building. The boy was ready. 

- Kindergarten is hard work. Ezra's school provides breakfast and lunch but Ezra doesn't have the normal snacks that he does when he's at home. As soon as he got into the car, he CRUSHED the snack we brought him. He also ate all of his dinner in record time. Apparently, all that learning and playing burns a lot of calories. 

- Thaliea is a big winner too. Except for one spot during resting time when she was crying because she missed her brother (a somewhat normal occurrence), Thaliea did great. I think she enjoys only having to share the sitter with one brother instead of two. As soon as Ezra got home, the two older kids were kind of inseparable, which was pretty cute. 

Of course, we're only one day in and things could change at any moment. Still, we're thankful that Ezra had a good first day and is ready to go back. 

Have an excellent day!
