Back to school...first day of Middle School

Hard to Believe but today Noah started Middle School in 6th Grade. Time flies!! Elementary school is officially behind us. 

He was a bit nervous but we had his stuff all ready and organized last night after we did orientation last week to get everything figured out and schedules And locker etc. he knows all the kids coming from his elementary school and there are 2 other schools joining in, so lots of new faces too. Our friend Kim works in the office as the school secretary so that is helpful for him to have a familiar face. Plus a few others from local congregations going there too: Elena, Nina and Grace. 

We had 6 boys at the bus stop this morning. Hoping that all goes well this year. Bus comes at 7:16 now, so a full hour earlier than last year. Adjustments to be made. One adjustment is now we don't need someone to watch him before school on my workdays. He leaves about the same time we do now. If we have an early meeting he can be dropped at school early now too. 

Hoping for good adventures and learning this year. I am sure he will be more tired for a while with early start and classes all over the building during the day. Next phase of life begins!! :)
