Well so many of you have asked about Eli and how he is adjusting to life as a 1st grader. Well I would have to say he is doing great!! We were a bit concerned at the beginning because is about a year younger then the rest of his class, but honestly he is doing great holding on just fine.
Every Monday I have the honorof working in his classroom and I love it. I was curious to see how he would act if I was in his classroom and I was shocked!! He was so well behaved and neve missed a beat. I get to see how he interacts with his other classmates and how well is he adjusting to sitting at a desk longer then kinder. He loves school and loves his friends. He is always right up front listening and taking it all in. The other night he heard Jimmy and I talking I said a word that reminded him of something that he learned in school and he talked about and shared with us what the word meant!!! I was blown away. One of Eli favorite things to do is to buy lunch and he just thinks it is so cool and a lot of fun. I am so proud if him and his effort that he is making as a big 1st grader. Eli you are such an amazing little Guy and we are so proud of you!!

That's great he is doing well? How old is he, you said he is a year younger than most of the 1st graders. Madeline and James both missed the birthday cut off here in TX, so Madeline turns 6 this December as a Kindergartener...and when James starts school in a few years he will be turning 6 that September as a Kindergartener.
