Countdown to school and orientation
This past Wednesday was my school orientation and to my delight, Mr. Henry greets me at the door with a hair cut, his beautiful, brown curls were all gone, and instead he had this really short do that actually made him look a lot older than his three years (for those following we did donate his hair to charity).
Our local elementary school had its open day and Ms. H got to meet her teacher’s today so while we filled out form and paid fees, she got to play around in her classroom, find her seat and actually meet one her classmates, J whom she hugged on our way out to her brother’s class.
I was happy to see that Mr. H would be having a male teacher this year, whom he may hesitate to pull some of the shenanigan’s like those he pulled on his first grade teachers, nonetheless he is thrilled about his science course which will deal with dinosaurs, as well as some other animals and plants.
Luckily Henry will have plenty to do as well, he’s already signed up for the reading program at the library, and I am hoping to get him into the YMCA, close to my school so he can at least interact with children his own age, but only twice a week since most of my classes are in the evening.
My orientation went well too, I met with the Chair of the Premedical Advisory committee, with classes as large as 150 + it is important that my professors now me early on, I hear it helps with letters of recommendation etc.
