FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

WELL, I'M A COUPLE OF WEEKS BEHIND, BUT WE HAVE SURVIVED SCHOOL SO FAR. GUS LOVES FIRST GRADE AND IS EXCITED TO GO EVERY DAY. HE IS READING SO WELL AND IS EXCITED TO READ EVERY BOOK IN HIS BACKPACK EVERY DAY. ONE DAY HE BROUGHT HOME SIX BOOKS!! WE HAVE BEEN BUSY GOING TO SOCCER AND FOOTBALL GAMES, SO WE HAVE DONE A LOT OF READING IN THE CAR.

SAGE IS ENJOYING SCHOOL ALSO. SHE WALKS IN THE DOOR EVERY DAY AT NOON AND SAYS, "I DON'T REMEMBER WHAT I LEARNED TODAY!" SHE HAS GOTTEN TIRED OF US ASKING, SO SHE JUST TELLS US. THROUGH THE DAY SHE GIVES A FEW HINTS OF WHAT WENT ON, BUT IT USUALLY JUST ENTAILS WHO SHE PLAYED WITH. SHE WILL ALSO SPOUT OFF THINGS THAT SHE DIDN'T KNOW BEFORE, AND IF YOU ASK WHERE SHE LEARNED IT SHE ALWAYS SAYS, "MRS. WILSON TAUGHT ME." SHE LOVES MRS. WILSON!
