The last month has been a huge transition for us! On January 8th Kiana started school and I went back to work! Kory and I are both teaching Kindergarten again this year, and our classrooms are just two doors away from each other! Kiana's classroom is in the portable that is directly across from the Kindergarten building stairway. It has been such a blessing for us to all be so close to one another!
Kiana is absolutely loving school! She is a part of our school's Deaf Ed program with a focus on ASL!
We had concerns that maybe she would have some separations issues at the start. Boy did she prove us wrong! Not a single tear was shed on that first day of school, and she was ready for us to leave her be as soon we dropped her off. After her first week of school we had a three day weekend. She was not pleased when we told her there would be no school for three days. If only we enjoyed going to work as much as she enjoyed going to school! Ha!
Kiana is all about agendas so school is right up her alley! She gets going on her morning routine from the second she enters the classroom.
She has one other student in her class with her, and they are becoming great friends, and Kiana never passes on an opportunity to be "mothering" on him. She also gets to spend time with other first graders during resources, like P.E. and Library.
And if you hadn't noticed already... her signature hairstyle for school is pigtails. She tells me each morning how she wants her hair, and even picks out all her own outfits for the week.
We are so blessed that she loves school so much and that the three of us get to work and learn all within a few from one another. We are so thankful for these days together!
