New Year, New School

 January 2, 2013 
The boys started their school year at the charter school, Jefferson Academy.  Due to enormous amounts of course work and other issues, we decided that in would be in the boys best interest to switch to our local elementary school after Christmas Break.  Here's Kaden on his way out the door on his first day at their new school.  (Versii is in the afternoon kindergarten, so they leave at different times, but they both get out of school at the same time now.)
 When I went to pick them up, they both begged to walk home with their friends.  Paxton wanted to see them walking by, so we snapped this picture from the parking lot at our local park.
 They both had great first days of school and the adjustment to their new classes gone well.  Kaden and Versii both know some kids in classes from church, so they already have friends there.  Their work load has lightened a bit and they are able to enjoy being kids, instead of spending most of the evening doing homework.  And finally, Versii is eager to go to school.  Most days I am hearing Versii say, "I love school!"  and "Today at school was so fun Mom!"  --I'm really glad we made the decision to switch.
