Ely's first day of 5th grade 2013

Ely started school last Thursday the 8th of August. He was bummed that none of his closest friends were in his class. He came home so excited with news that his new teacher, Mrs. Benham, is totally awesome. Then Friday's news was that he was intimidated when he was in the position of switching classes three times each day. Slowly adjusting... I think it is going to be a great year for Ely.
 No best buddies around means the possibility of meeting new pals and switching three times a day means change and new experiences. Ely is not seeing his new school year this way just yet. However, I expect by then end of this week he will begin to settle in nicely.

1st day of 5th grade

Bright colors, high top shoes, and long socks. Wow, it's a blast from the past for me.

Loving my 5th grade boy,
