First grader!

Hayden started first grade on September 4.  He is in a 1st/2nd split class this year.  There are 52 students in his class!  14 first graders, and the rest 2nd graders.  His teachers are Mrs. Wilkinson and Mrs. Hancock.  So far Hayden is doing really well.  We haven't had quite as many struggles with homework this year (YET!), but maybe that's because it's more his level.  He doesn't have a problem doing the 2nd grade curriculum.  I just worry about next year.  He will be in 2nd grade and learning the same stuff all over again.  I'm not sure how that's going to work.

I didn't cry on the first day of Kindergarten, but I did on the first day of 1st grade.  I guess because he is gone ALL day now.  It's been an adjustment and we have a very tired boy at the end of the day (and especially at the end of the week).

I just wanted to add--Hayden also turned 7 last month.  I can't believe he'll be getting baptized next year!
