First Day Excitement

We had an amazing first day of first grade.  Reviewing expectations, reuniting with old friends, catching up about summer adventures, bulletin board projects, and lots of outdoor time filled our day.  If you're receiving this through email, check out the direct blog - I've put together a video of your child sharing a thought or two about their day! Enjoy!
