Chaos!

Several months ago Shane took an exciting opportunity to go to work in Colorado for the end of last school year and throughout the summer. We went and spent the summer with him and once it was time for school to start again, Shane got transferred to Wyoming. So we decided to take our boys and live there for the year.
This is an exciting school year for our boys...less exciting for mom. Terry started the 2nd grade and Charlie started kindergarten. What we didn't know is that in Wyoming kindergarten is ALL day. Mom had completely prepared herself for half day! Luckly Charlie was totally pumped about being able to go all day. Mom just has to get used to the idea and find ways to keep busy.
Here are a few things the boys like about school so far.

Terry:
  • His teacher can do magic tricks
  • He gets to help with the magic tricks
  • His teacher is a boy

Charlie:

  • They get to have recess more than one time every day
  • He loves PE and is excited to have the same PE shoes as Terry
  • Sometimes PE is in the SAME room as the lunchroom/gym
  • With lunch you get more than just chicken nuggets and he can eat all of it (said very proudly)
