August 2009

Too soon the summer fun is over and time for school to begin. Elizabeth turns 8 and starts 3rd grade. To help Sarah have a little more time to fill in the gaps, we enrolled her in a Montessori school, where she is in a class of 3-5 year olds. This environment lets her pursue the 5 year old activities where she is ready (which is most of the time) yet gives her opportunity to build some skills she is still developing with the younger children.

I'll be back later to insert the first day of school photos.
