Building blogs, number one

Hello all!
We are a family with a student in the public charter school, Connections Academy.
It was suggested that families create a blog or scrapbook of some sort and so we thought we'd give it a try.
On this page we will keep track the best we can on our journey with school.
After creating this blog, I already am anxious to see the end and review yet another small chapter in my child's life.  How exciting!
A few weeks ago we recieved our computer and other school goods in the mail.  We were VERY excited!  Our kindergartner was so excited to open the boxes and see what was inside.  There were books, crayons, paint and so much more.
We moved a shelf into what we call "the classroom" in our home.  On this shelf we started collecting all of the things from the list of items that she would need for the school year.  As the shelf started to fill up it become more real and real!  This little girl was officially, a kindergartner!
We got the computer set up next to "mommy's big computer".  Turned it on and made sure everything was set up right.  And, check! It was done.
The hardest part now is keeping occupied until school starts, and staying out of the school supplies for the year.  So on that note, I got some good deals at Menard's for school supplies and some activity books.  Things to do until the new school year arrives.
Everyone at Connections Academy has been so kind, and everything has been right on schedule.  We are loving this school already.
Cheers to the upcomming school year!
