Today is Ailey's first day of 2nd grade. Despite some nerves leading up to today, she got on the bus excited for school. We went to her classroom and met her teacher yesterday, got all her school supplies put away in her new desk. She even gets to sit next to someone she knows from last year. (With five 2nd grade classrooms to split the kids into there were surprisingly few familiar names on her class list!)
The school-morning routine was surprisingly familiar to all of us despite 2 1/2 months away from it. The girls all got up and ready and out the door cheerily. While I know that is mostly novelty causing the smooth morning, and the more difficult mornings are yet to come, I appreciate it nonetheless.
Marin and Silje start preschool next week. They go back to the same teacher and classroom three days a week and are looking forward to it. (Me too!)
