Second Grade

Michaela officially started second grade today.

She was excited and confident, and I think she’ll do really well in her new class. Her teacher is quite veteran and everyone I know who’s children have had her raves about this teacher. There’s a good group of children in the class and I’m hopeful she’ll develop some close friendships.

Poor Michaela came home with a slight cold — the result of a cold I caught and passed onto Nana and Papa while we were in Wyoming for the eclipse. Apparently we passed it on to her. She went to bed at 7:15 or so, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed she’ll wake up well enough to go to school tomorrow. Not because it’s important to me, but really because she is so excited about the new year.

I love this kid!
