Fare Thee Well Third Grade

Today at 11:30 am, my Braxton was no longer a 3rd grader. I cannot believe how fast the year flew by, I remember the first day of 3rd grade like it was yesterday. I am so proud of him. Moving to Colorado was probably a bigger adjustment for him than any one else in our family, but he has done really well. He made some great friends and I think he now feels like Rice Elementary is his school. He even said to me while we were walking home that he wishes we were still going to be here for 5th grade.

I love summer vacation. I am a selfish mom and like the fact that I don't have to share my son with the school. We have a lot of great things planned for the summer. Swimming lessons start next week, we leave for South Dakota tomorrow for a fun trip, we have a couple of trips planned to Utah and then we go to Nova Scotia in July for almost three weeks.

Braxton and his teacher, Mrs. Foster. She is wonderful!!!
Braxton and Miss Phillips. Miss Phillips was the student teacher in Braxton's class. She graduated this month and will be teaching kindergarten in Littleton in the fall. We love Miss Phillips and know she will be an awesome kindergarten teacher. This is Braxton's principal, Mrs. Koehn. While we were taking this pictures, she was trying to track down some students who took the bus but their dad had come to pick them up. A principal's work is never done, I suppose.
