This is a picture of Sawyer on his first day of 1st grade. I learned today that he passed the Gateway exam and will be off to a better more academic school in the next school year (in third grade). He was one of the chosen one in his class to take this test, recommended by his teacher. Sawyer was not too enthusiastic when he realized that passing the test would mean a new school. When we told him today, he started pouting. But Jeff mentioned how he would be able to take the school bus and that brought a smile to his face.I don't know why, but my kids loves school buses. I actually do too, in fact i wanted to rent one for my wedding. But didnt. I still remember Sawyer’s first school bus ride, we were going to the State Fair and we have to take a school bus to get to the gate from the parking lot. He was two and wanted to sit by himself, he glared at me when i went near him, I can still see him, his back not touching the seat and his feet dangling, sitting straight up with a smile on his face. Now he is off (soon) to this promising future. I will post more about the Gateway class later.
