First Day of School/Happy Birthday Elaine!

Monday was the first day of school with students… Grady was ready for “school” at Mrs. Kaye’s!!! He has been having a blast with his friends… he sure missed them over the summer!








I have a challenging class this year, but this week has been good so far and I am excited to work with my kids. We also have two new teachers on our grade level and they fit right in!

Yesterday was Elaine’s birthday. She picked up Grady from daycare early so they could spend the day together. Then, she came over for dinner and we had dessert at Dairy Queen. :) Since she likes to work in the yard, we made her a garden stepping stone that Grady put his handprints in. He was SO proud of the finished product and I think Elaine loved it.


Happy Birthday Elaine!
