1st Grade Open House

Tonight was open house at Lorton Station Elementary School.  I was much more nervous than Kaylea.  She was super excited to meet her new teacher.  I was excited when we were walking the halls and she saw two kids she knew.  She has been attending camp since Jordy went back to work two weeks ago.  It made me feel good to know she would have someone to say hi to in the mornings.

She picked her seat and drew a picture of what she enjoyed this summer.  She drew a picture of our trip to Mexico.  She is sitting next to a girl who will ride the same bus as her.

Her new teach is Mrs. Maquera.  She seemed nice.  She has pretty Christmas lights in her classroom and likes to keep the room dimly lit.  She promised a pet fish for the room and the class would get to vote on the name.  She talked nicely to Kaylea and said she was a nice teacher and that she gives lots of chances.

We explored the school and met some kids in the class and it was time to go home.  I'm sure I will be worried Tuesday while Kaylea will be ready to go!
