Harrison and I went to meet his teacher on Thursday and drop off his school supplies. He REALLY wanted to have Mr. Johnson be his teacher this year. Last year at a school picnic, he ended up playing laser tag with Mr. Johnson and thought that was SO cool. I think he would have responded really well to him, too, but I thought the odds were not in our favor of getting him. There are 10 first grade classes this year in Harrison's school! Over crowding this year will be remedied by a new school being built to start next year. Anyway, his teacher next year will be Mrs. Rothrock and after meeting her he is ok. Definitely saw his face fall when I said her name, but he liked her and thought she seemed very nice.
So, because there are 10 classes, it was unlikely that he would be grouped with many of his buddies from last year. There were a couple of friendly faces in his class, and what's funny is that one of the girls, Sarah, is sitting right next to him! Even funnier, she sat next to him for the entire year last year! He really liked that. She's quite the crack-up, apparently.
So, I'll post first day pictures on Monday! I can't believe we have a first grader!
