I went shopping today for my oldest who is starting Kindergarten. SO UNBELIEVEABLE! The past years have been such a whirlwind, and I've been in the flow of little ones for so long, to have one becoming independent is, well, heartbreaking! I of course started to cry in the dressing room as she tried on her navy jumper and white-peter-pan-collared shirt. Flashbacks of my first years of elementary school when I wore exactly the same thing.
Sending her to school was a difficult decision for me. I still sometimes wonder if homeschooling isn't a better coice, but I struggle with making it all work with two other children much younger and more demanding to tend to. Frankly, my super 3 yr.old is TOTAL BOY and anything "school-like" is a bit challenging for him (so to speak). He, on the other hand, may still be homeschooled. I think I'll get a better sense of that once Grace is gone. UGH! Grace is going to be gone! So wierd...

How is school going for Grace?
Grace is doing wonderfully, thank you. She's reading (had that conquered half way thru the year), is an excellent speller, great penmenship and not too shabby at math. She actually won the "Outstanding Student" award. Personality wise, she's totally transformed from this little shy girl to quite the observant and wise young girl. She's amazing.
