Today I attended the official Grade One Welcome tea and ' meet the teacher' for the fourth and final time. This is a year for some final things. Like saying good bye to our fav Mrs G who has taught all our boys in grade R and who we just love , love, love. Saying goodbye to the little school that has been a home from home for us all as a family for 7 years is a very hard thing - a very sad thing. It is part of the ebb and flow of this life. Starting formal education is also part of that and we rejoice and thank God for our great school and its good teachers.
So, after I farmed the other 3 boys out to friends, Jethro and I set off to meet the teacher. After the meeting we went for a milkshake and 'cross aunt' as we call it in the Falconer home. It was very special. Jethro was all smiles and giggles at the fun of it and he was relieved to 'Know" his teacher and that he has some friends in his class for next year. Thank you Lord.
2013 will be the one and only year we have all 4 boys in one school, ever!!
I look forward to the fun we will have and all we will learn , together.
Thank you Lord for your grace and kindness in giving us a great school.
May Jethro go from strength to strength as he goes to grade one. If this afternoon is anything to show , he is very excited!!
