First Day of School

The first day of school came upon us no matter how much we tried to deny it!  At our house, the Back to School Fairy finds us every year no matter where we live!  It's a tradition that started when Ra entered kindergarten in hopes of easing any fears of starting school in a new place.  He started school just a week after we moved to Utah.  It's be great fun because the fairy finds us at every new address. With the kids extensive and specific school supply lists, it's become more challenging to decide what the fairy will bring, but this year, she brought things for the kids to do during their first week of 1/2 days.  Ra got a superball making kit and Sis got a weaving loom kit.  

They each got letters from the fairy with an individual verse for them to consider if they were nervous for their first days.  Ra's verse was Phil. 4:6 and Sis's was Joshua 1:9.  

Every year we take pictures with a sign stating the grade they are entering with the school and teacher - because it changes so frequently!  
 Sis was a little nervous for first grade, but once she got there and found her friends, she was fine.  

Both kids had a great first week.  They are excited about this school year and all that it will bring!
