First Day of School!

The boys had their first day of school last Monday. Erico started 2nd grade and Elkin started Pre-K. They were both very excited to be returning to school.

Erico is lucky because his 1st grade teacher moved up to 2nd grade and most of the students returned to the same class. I think that it is a great idea becuase the kids and teacher don't have to spend the first week trying to get to know each other, they can jump right into learning full speed.

For Elkin, he is at a dfferent school than Erico because Erico's school does not offer VPK. But nonetheless, Elkin is excited to go to school and meet new friends. Next year they will both be in the same school!

Oh yeah, the splint on Elkin's finger, well, he has a small fracture on his pinky finger. Gil, Erico and Elkin were playing keep away with a football and when Elkin went to get the ball from the floor, he lost his balance and fell with all of his weight on his hand. He is gettingbetter and he doesn't have to wear the splint anymore.
