School Days!

Well, school has finally begun here in Mountain Lakes.  Contruction at the high school delayed the opening about 10 days for the entire system.  The school year did not start a moment too soon for Stephen.  He was as eager to go to kindergarten as any kid I've seen, and he has not been disappointed in his first week.  His teacher, Mrs. Hammer, has a happy, gentle matter that belies here name.  Stephen pointed out that in fact there is no hammer in the classroom, and that is just her name. 

Nina and David are settling in well to their new classes.  Since even I have trouble keeping track sometimes:  Nina is now in 5th grade, and David in 4th.  Matthew is having a little trouble understanding why he is not going to school as well, and seems somewhat nonplussed by the quiet house he is experiencing.  But he is keeping busy with a fun class at the Y a couple of times a week.

I took a few pictures of opening day, which are here for your viewing pleasure.
