Okay, so this is a terrible picture. But what middle school boy is going to stop and smile for the camera with all his new classmates watching?! ; )
It gives an idea of the kind of "bus" the kids are taking to school. Will's campus is farther away, so he gets home a bit later. Jack and Mary take a bigger bus to their campus.
It's purple!
Anne's school is only half-day, so she gets home around 11:40. The bigs kids got home around 2:45, happy and exhausted. After a snack, each one could be found laying in bed and reading a comic book.
This is the boys' room. It's hard to see, but Anne is standing next to Will's bed and Jack's mattress is on the floor on the right.
The community here has been very welcoming and the kids are finding friendly playmates. They will be learning French and Bangla and are already practicing for their Christmas programs. Every day is still full of new and unfamiliar experiences. This is both fun and exhausting! : )
Have a great first week of school! we love you all! The Pinkhams
ReplyDeleteWe have been praying for you as you start your new school, praying that you will make new friends, and learn Bangla quickly. I wish was there so I could help you with learning French as I used to speak it quite well. So hugs and love to all you kiddos, Opa and I send all our love to you. So do the doglets and the horses.
