Gabi Starts Kindergarten - August 2010

I can't believe our baby girl is already in kindergarten.  Time has surely flown by!! 

Gabi has been to two different schools.  She started at our neighborhood school, but after just a short time we realized that the school was not going to work with her.  Although she is in kindergarten she reads at over a 3rd grade reading level.  The teacher was sending home papers to circle the letters of the alphabet.  When asked for items to challenge Gabi they really didn't have any ideas, and said that they could possibly send home things to work on.  That wouldn't work.   What would she do all day at school?

So, we moved her to Nathan's school.  Luckily Gabi's name came up on the school lottery.  I was very sad to let go of Gabi's cute school clothes and actually took back several of her new school clothes in order to buy her new school uniforms.  Now that we are several months into the school year, the uniforms have been nice.  Gabi loves her teacher, and she is learning lots. 

Gabi's first week at her first school:

The traditional "off to school with the backpack" picture.

She wanted to take a picture without her backpack.

This year Gabi got two new pairs of transition glasses.  These will be nice for recess.  We won't have to bug the teacher to remind her to put on sunglasses when going out.

So excited for school!

Gabi's new school:

Ready to go into her new school.  She has been here many times to see daddy, but never as a student herself.  She was excited.
