The first day of school

Well the first day of school went well. They both came home with smiles on their faces. Brian gets two first days of school, they have A days and B days. But first day of A day was great. He likes all his teacher so far. He like being treated like an adult (those are his words) He LOVES open campus lunches especially with an Arby's, Carl's Jr., Panda, Mc D's, Burger King, and Papa Johns pizza so close to the school. Oh yeah and Starbucks which is what he had for the first day of school. He came home and rested about 10 minute and got right on his homework without being asked. I was amazed at that. This is a first in all his many school years. Jessica likes her teachers as well. They tested her reading with the dibbles test (BTW, I hate dibbles) and she did very well. This is a first for her she normally scores 6 months below to right at reading level. At there standard if you score at reading level you are a low reader. Don't ask. But they went as far as testing her at a 9th grade level. Well that's what they told her and she struggled at the 9th but did very well until then. I am proud of both of them. Let's hope this is a sighn for what is to come; lost of smiles and doing well in school
