Preparing for School

We're gearing up for school to begin. Peder starts school on August 20th. I start on the 25th, but have school prep work and staff developments all next week. I had speech inservices last Friday and today (Monday). Yesterday we shopped for Peder's school supplies. Included on the list are an index card file, alphabetical index card dividers and index cards. We're not sure what he'll be doing with those, but I do know that there will definitely be more academic responsibilities now that he's in 1st grade. We are visiting his classroom on Wednesday and he's very excited about that. His teacher is Ms. Dolliver and I'm looking forward to meeting her.
