Today Cory is starting 3rd grade!!! He was so excited about today but a little nervous because today was the first day he would be taking the bus to school rather than Mom driving him. Cory has worked so hard this Summer on his math thru tutoring at Sylvan. We all look forward to seeing how he applies everything he's learned at Sylvan in his new classroom. We're hoping he is able to enjoy 3rd grade and not worry so much about not understanding how to do math. He gave up a lot of play time this Summer so he could better himself and I know once he sees how it helps him at school he will be so glad he did it!!! He's not quite done with Sylvan though. He's still got a few weeks to go and will be heading to Sylvan afterschool before he goes to football practice! Such a busy schedule for an 8 year old (okay almost 9) ha ha!! He handles everything with such ease though!!
He had said he wished Caiti was still little so she would still be staying at home and I wouldn't have to take her to school that way I could drive him, ha ha!! When the time came this morning to head out to the bus stop (which is right in front of our house, yay!) it was a different story. He kept hurrying me and Caiti so he could stand there and wait. Then when the bus came he was ready to just get on and go that he didn't even give me a hug!! I wanted so badly to just call to him and have him come back to give me a hug but I didn't. I let my little man go and be independent!!! It's what he wants and I know that! I'm so proud of who he is and everything he is turning into!!
