Sarah's first day of school

Sarah had a fabulous first day of school. Her teacher's name is Mrs. Pat and she does a great deal with the bilingual teacher next door. We were not allowed to place her in a bilingual room as Spring Branch has a policy that if there are too many bilingual kids, the English ones get bumped. We are thinking that this is maybe a good thing as we will be dealing with hearing aids this year also. So we might want to give her a reprieve from something very very challenging right now. If we do get into Cedar Brook's dual language we will think again.
None of the kids from Bendwood are in her class but that doesn't seem to bother her at all. She plays with them in the a.m. and then walks over to Wild Cat and back with them and then plays in the p.m. with them until I pick her up. She did however come home with a terrible itchy red rash all over her body. We hope it is because of something she ate or the sand she has played in. She has told Russ and I several times that the sand makes her itch and it isn't like ours here at home. I have made her lunch and snack so that she will be able to stay away from the food at school and we shall see how she is tomorrow. The pictures are to share with everyone. They are of her first day of school!!!! Look at the smiles.
