And we have structure again - as always, it has its pros and cons. Mainly pros. The 2017 school year is off to a great start with all 3 kids really loving their teachers. All of them have really, really, kind and warm fuzzy sort of teachers this year. Luke is in his last year of elementary school which is really hard to fathom. I have memories of feeling very grown up in 5th grade which in hindsight is quite ridiculous, but nonetheless, authentic at the time. I'm not sure Luke has those same thoughts though, or at least, he shouldn't - ha! His teacher has his class practicing yoga and meditation and she diffuses essential oils in the classroom - you get the idea. I asked Luke about this and his only comment was that he doesn't really care for yoga. He's a boy with ants in his pants with his eyes on the playground. Adrienne has the same teacher she had for first grade since they loop with their teacher into 2nd grade. They are currently working on the age old project of hatching monarch butterflies. And coco, well, my tiny girl has started pre-school. She's following in Ade's footsteps and is at Trinity Montessori. The school where everything is beautiful, amazing, wonderful, fantastic, peaceful, loving, and nurturing. She has found a best friend already. They are apparently attached at the hip. She's loving school but does not like circle time. She lines her stuffed animals up in her room at home and pretends she doing circle time to them. I think its her coping mechanism at work...turning the tables and being the one in charge.
