Aspen Creek K-8

Brady started 7th grade today! His "connect" teacher (homeroom) had called him two days ago to introduce himself and tell Brady what to do and where to go on the first day. Brady is very excited about having a male teacher!! Yesterday, he went to the 7th-8th grade new student orientation and got his schedule. After that, we went to the pool and met some new friends, the Anthony's, who have a boy in Brady's grade (Joey) and a boy in Baylie's grade and class! (Jayden). Joey told B what to do and what to expect at Aspen Creek!! So as of this morning, Brady knew two 7th graders! (We had met Amy our second day after moving in - she was walking our neighbor's dog - B gave her a "hey" and a JW head nod :) This morning he stood at the top of the staircase and watched kids walk/ride over.... then decided he did NOT want me to walk him over. When I took Baylie over for her reading assessment, I passed the cafeteria and saw B in line for milk, I assumed, since he brought lunch. I took Baylie down to her room and met her teacher - Mrs. Konold - who is very, very nice and young. We got her unpacked at her desk and then she had a reading assessment. I took this opportunity to sneak back down and peek into the cafeteria. B was in line with his Vitamin Water!!! And, there was another boy standing beside him, who it turns out after lurking a little longer was waiting for B. They went together to a table of kids and sat down in the middle. I cried tears of relief! Stay tuned for B's report on today...I bet it will be brief!
