Day 2

Well, good news to report - 2 out of the 3 kids love school, and one is okay with it. Conner LOVES high school. Last night he gave it a "10" out of a scale of one to ten, despite that he forgot his locker combination the whole first day (except for the first time he opened it) and that he didn't get home until 8:45 after his team played their first soccer game in the pouring down rain. We are so proud of him, as he has had an amazing attitude these first couple of days. He has come home happy, talkative, and excited. He even did some of his math homework in the car on the way home (without being given this suggestion!) His favortie classes so far are World History, Bible, and Multimedia for Mac. It is amazing all of the things that he has to remember to bring home and pack up each night for soccer. We are hoping that nothing gets lost in a friend's car on the way to soccer practice or in one of the carpool cars :) McKenzie wasn't too thrilled the first day because she does not have enough of her friends in her classes. Since school is all about friends, it looks like she will be needing to make some more friends so that she can better enjoy her classes :) Yesterday was better, though, because she had PE, and there were at least 10 of her friends in her class. Kelsey is also loving school. She told me after the first day that she has never really liked school but couldn't wait to go back to 5th grade the next day. She said, "That's the first time I've ever said that." That was news to me that she's never really liked school, but it's a good sign that she's off to a great start.
