The School Year Begins

The kids are back in school, and they both had a great first day.  Olivia began fifth grade, and this will be her last year in elementary.  Her big news for the day was that the math teacher let the class choose their own seats, and so she ended up in a group with three of her buddies.  I know at least one of these buddies to be as chatty as Olivia, so this seating arrangement may be short-lived.  

Owen began fourth grade, and he has the same teachers that Olivia had last year.  This is great because we already have a idea about the amount and type of work that will be assigned.  He is excited that most of his buddies are in his class again this year.  I'm so glad that the first day back was a success.
