Last week, we had a brand new Kindergartner and a brand new 3rd grader in our house! So much excitement, we could hardly sleep!
Tarun and I had been very excited for the boys to be together at school. As I drove them to school the first day and as the school got closer, a realization struck me; this was it, Vir, our littlest one was off to Elementary school. Where did the time do?!? And then the eyes were wet and the tears were rolling or may be it was allergies.
But as soon as we parked, the mood was different. The school was beaming with bright smiles. They gave high fives to the greeters and Kabir and I walked Vir to his classroom. Outside the classroom, the board said:
We went inside, Vir met his teachers and soon found his favorite things to play with. He was busy in no time! Kabir walked up to his class and was overjoyed to see his friends!
They both didn't notice when I left and then I didn't see them till pickup.
Vir had a lot to share the first two days and I was overjoyed but now all he shares is about recess and PE! Where did the other stories go? I long for them and I hope they will come back.
Kabir loves third grade! He is loving math, is writing stories and is thinking about what type of community they should be as a class. It's the thinking they do, that I love the most.
Vir is as happy as he can be! He loves the multiple recesses he gets and PE is another favorite. He calls his days "very fun"! I don't doubt him at all. Every day, I wish I was in his class!
Excited for both the boys on their new journey and the magic this year will bring!
