They LOVE school. I’m so glad we found a place for them so close to the end of the year. It’s a good fit and the staff are very understanding and loving towards the girls.
They are going to a school that is affiliated with our church. Kelly is in Pre-school and Monica is in Pre-Kindergarten. Kelly’s class has 13 students and Monica’s 8. Their favorite thing to do at school is to play on both the indoor and outdoor playgrounds. The other students in their classes have been so sweet by literally taking the girls by the hand and making them feel comfortable and included.
A huge blessing and answer to prayer is the fact that one little girl in Kelly’s class lives only 4 houses away from us. We had never met them until now. And, to top it off, her mom is a Spanish teacher/adjunct professor at UC. Wow! We had hoped to surround our girls with both Spanish speakers and people of Latin descent. Now, there is someone just around the corner.
Here are a few pics of Kelly’s first day in class. (Monica and I were both a little overwhelmed on her first day so I forgot to take pictures of her first day in class! I only got the one of her on the way to school. Sorry Monica.)

Huge! Obvious! answers to many prayers. Thank you, Father.
That is great news that you have found a school that they are so happy at! It looks like Kelly had a great first day and lots of fun.
PTL! Glad to hear the great news. God is so good planting seeds of friendship right in your backyard with a special Latin twist…..He is so amazing! I love to listen to how God is taking such good care of all of you. I also loved seeing your fridge bursting with pictures! 🙂 The joy of paper and kids….the endless mountain of paper and the decisions of which to keep, which to throw away, and may I suggest this one – which to send to Omi! 🙂
