Only 1 more day until school starts! We met Luke's teacher tonight, Miss K, who is in her second year of teaching and she seems really nice. In First Grade Luke will have a DESK!! In kindergarten he shared a table with five other classmates. He was in the same kindergarten class with about half of his new classmates and is excited that he will know a lot of kids in his new class. We are in the process of filling out a survey about Luke for Miss K and one of the questions is use 5 words to describe Luke's personality. So far we have creative, friendly, and curious... any suggestions for 2 more descriptive words?
Luke wants me to tell you that he is "Really excited!" & "Happy to be starting First Grade!" :-D
In other news... this week we discovered a caterpillar on our new milkweed plant. Luke ran inside and got one of his books, "Discovering Insects & Spiders" because he remembered seeing the same caterpillar in the book. Sure enough the cateripllar is in the book and it's a monarch! It has eaten 1 and a 1/2 milkweed pods, which we aren't thrilled about, but for two days it has stayed on the plant. We really hope it decides to stick around, make a crysalis, and turn into a beautiful butterfly!
In an unfortunate incident this week between the Jeep and Audrey's big wheel, the big wheel did not survive. Therefore we had to buy a new bike and in my haste I picked a tricycle for 1 1/2-3 year olds and took the tags off before Audrey sat on it. Luckily her knees don't hit the handle bars but she will probably graduate to the big bike with training wheels next spring. She loves her new bike, though, and can pedal better than on her big wheel!
