New chapter for Ethan...KINDERGARDEN!


Well, the first day of kindergarden finally arrived and it was a long day for Ethan. The bus picked him up at 0600, yes, that's not a typo, and he didn't get home until 3:15. This is the only picture I was able to sneak in. Ethan wanted no part of pictures being taken and I didn't want to add any undo pressure, so I snuck this one in when he got off the bus. So, after two weeks of 0545 wakeups, I decided to drive him to school. It only gives him 30 minutes extra, but that seems to be making a big difference in his energy level.

Wow! That is crazy early. Carter did full days for about 3 weeks before summer break here and he was feeling those first couple. He had finally adjusted to the long day and then it was over. Carter has been loving seeing all the pictures. He keeps asking me if people have put more pictures up for him to see. He is also still talking about when Ethan and Zac are going to be coming to England. I need a world map onhis wall so he has a visual aide to assist where they are at now.
Glad to see you guys are getting settled. Also, that you had a great trip visiting family.
