A New School Year Begins...

WOW! Where did the summer go?!? It's hard to believe it is already time for another school year to begin. This year we have our first high schooler! Chandler is in the 9th Grade! We have one completing and one beginning elementary school. Dillan is in 5th Grade and Ethan is in 1st. It is bittersweet to think we have one in the last year of pre-K. Isabelle is in K-4.

Our Foster children at the beginning of the school year 2012-2013. I somehow managed to not snap this picture :(  Maybe I'll just snap one of them midyear.




 Finally, I managed to get the group photo (it only took until February). Oh well, they look cute! I still can't believe how fast they're growing up!

Ethan met his teacher, Mrs Sharpe. He was nervous and did not want to stay at school for his first day, however, she won him over quickly!



Isabelle LOVES her teacher, Mrs. Downing. She walked right in on Meet the Teacher and made herself right at home.
 She made time for hopscotch on the way in to school.

 She and Michael are together again :)

 Mrs. Downing and Isabelle
  Isabelle enjoyed showing Dillan her new classroom.



 Isabelle was Starfish of the Day the second week of school and got to sleep in the classroom boat (Mrs. Downing snapped a picture for us).

Dillan is very happy he has Mr. Gaston and Mrs. Lomax for fifth grade. I am praising Jesus he is able to return to school and has loving, patient and kind teachers!



Since Chandler is now in high school he participated in a St Luke's tradition. The first day of school the freshmen unlock a set of gates and enter through them to signify the beginning of high school. The gates remain locked for them until their senior year on graduation day when they will exit the campus signifying the beginning of a new chapter in their lives.





 Chandler walking in with a few of his friends. It all flies by in a flash...

The school year is half over and I am finally posting this... We're all adjusted to our school schedule and look forward to a wonderful second semester :)
