Officially a big Kindergartner!!

Owen, you are ready to tackle this year head on! 

Yesterday you and Daddy went to lunch and talked all about your year.  You had Chucks burgers and fries of which you ate as much as Daddy! You talked about what you were excited for...everything except spelling you said. What friends you might make...like Logan and Eli. What you might learn...letters or numbers or bugs. How to respect your classmates and teachers...

Then this morning at 6:10 you were up and too excited to go back to sleep!  You played with Katie, packed your lunch, changed from play clothes to your button up, filled your back pack with your goodies and off we went! While we were driving school, we prayed for your time, Katie filled you in on the rules or "laws" of being respectful (which she quizzed you about after school) and soon we were pulling into the parking lot.  

Your first day was a success! Tonight at dinner your comments to Daddy stated, "I'm already excited to go to school tomorrow!" It warms our hearts to see you so excited to learn. Your teacher, Mrs. Streit, was thrilled that God provided a way for you to join her class at Bayleaf this year and so are we!  You have four other kiddos in class with you (so a total of 5) and we expect your year to be A-Mazing! 

We love you, Owen B Hime, to the moon and back!
