Back to School!

The bells were ringing in Dallas this past week - both school bells and sounds of joy from every parent with school-aged children.  It is Back to School!

D in sixth grade; H in kindergarten

D's school posted this Back-to-School picture on their web site!

H and his "please leave, Mom" face.

H is starting his kindergarten year, the third year in the Montessori three-year preschool cycle.  This is his third year in this same classroom with the same teachers and many of the same classmates.  He will be a "class leader" this year in this multi-age classroom.  Here he is helping to get the classroom ready. 









School Days Past:

H two years ago in August 2012.  His first year of primary in Montessori.

D starting kindergarten in 2007.  He was 5 years old - the same age as H now.  That big lump under my shirt is H.  :)
