This past school year I considered James "Pre-K", so this year he will be in Kindergarten. My biggest goal for him this coming year is to master reading. He can read most three and four letter words, plus over a hundred sight words - but he still struggles when encountering a word he hasn't seen before. He'll be joining Belle and Russell for science, history, and Spanish lessons, but we'll be doing his own thing for reading, writing/handwriting, math, and music. In addition, I'm going to devote one hour, four days a week to doing a fun preschool/K lesson with James and Ellie Jo.
Below are some of my favorite photos of James from the past school
year. Today we celebrated his fifth birthday (which means we also
celebrated Dave and my 9th anniversary)... where has the time gone?!

p.s. I didn't start school last Monday like I had originally planned... I'm hopeful I'll get enough organized/planned to be able to start this coming Monday!
