Shawn started 9th grade. So far he loves it. He has a great group of friends (they call themselves the crew). There is seven of them. He is loving being the oldest in the school. He is doing well so far. We are about 7 months away from him getting his learners permit. Wow - where has the time gone?
Alyssa started 7th grade. Oh my gosh I can't believe that my little girl is in 7th grade. She also has a great group of friends. They are all in a little temple group. They have been going twice a month. She is loving having seven classes. One fun thing that happened... in seventh grade the kids make a mouse trap car. They design it and then they race them at the school. The school record was 163 feet and it was made last year. Well my little seventh grade girl made the NEW school record of 174.8 feet. Awesome job Alyssa!
I can't believe that Cameron is in 5th grade. That just seems so old. I remember 5th grade so well. I just can't believe he is there. He has Mrs. Dow. She seems like a great teacher. She is really organized. I love that. I love the curriculum in 5th grade. He has some great friends too. He love hanging out with the guys and doing all kinds of fun things. I am also noticing that he is also starting to like to hang out with some girls here and there. Weird.
Ashley is in the 3rd grade. It seems like just yesterday Shawn was there and now my baby is there. She has Mrs. Birth. Se is a little tiny teacher but she is GREAT! I also love the curriculum in third grade. She has some fun fun little friends. She is in Activity Days at church and is loving that.
I thought that life would slow down when they went to school but I have found a lot of stuff to keep me occupied. I love the schedule of school. I love that they go to bed early and read. I love that I have six hours to my self. I know - I am a mean Mom, but I love it!!!! School Rocks!
