First Day of School 2020

Today was the first day of school for the year. The kids got up earlier than they have and got dressed and came out to the guesthouse which we reconfigured for desks and workspaces. Everyone has a place now. 

Despite a few technology hiccups it was a success. Calvin saw his friends and teacher (the same one he had reading with last year so she was a familiar face and knows him pretty well). Ellie...well the first day of middle school is always stressful and chaotic, right? It was just a different stressful and chaotic...and maybe tougher because she couldn’t talk to her best friend although they have the same teacher. Lots of learning curves but we survived. It was a short day so tomorrow will be more interesting with more online school.
