Evan’s first day of school
Yesterday Evan started at a local school in our neighborhood called Ave Maria. This is a new experience for all of us, so I think we were all a little nervous…except Ellie. We all went with him in the morning to get him registered and settled into his classroom. Ellie wanted to climb right in to Evan’s chair and stay for school, but Evan knew that he was the one really staying, and there were plenty of tears from him. It was so hard to leave him, but when I went to pick him up at the end of the day, I found him happily playing outside with his classmates. There were tears this morning too, but they didn’t last long, and he had a great day. His class went on a field trip today to a park close by to examine the nature (trees, leaves, dirt, etc.).
Here he is that first morning…
