Half-Way Through First Grade!

Today marks the last day of the first half of the school year. It seems like yesterday when we were clothes shopping, shoe shopping, when the blissful days of summer were ending, when I was nervously contemplating Grace and Sarah being separated with their own teachers in their own classes. Now they are half-way to the end, and they are doing phenomenally well! They love having their own space and their own teachers, and they have made a lot of great friends. Their reading ability has soared this year, and their math and writing skills are great, too. I couldn't be happier with their success in school, especially given their rough start to life, and I have so much hope for their future. They are two sweet, loving, caring, smart, wonderful girls and we are so amazingly blessed!
