We now have a second grader and a fifth grader! On August 17, our kids headed off to their first day of the new school year.
While we took pictures at the front door, like other years, this year the kids are starting off as distance learners. But for them, the distance learning is taking place on campus, as their after school program (AKC) is running a full day program, helping them log into all their zoom meetings and generally get through the school day. The nice thing is that they each have a few classmates and can enjoy time with those friends during the breaks during the school day.
While not a perfect start to the year, it is exciting to have a second and fifth grader, and so far this year is going better than the spring!
