Off to Kindergarten

Off to school for Owen. He was so excited on his first day and I cried happy tears thinking about all the fun he is going to have! His teacher, Mrs. Skaug is wonderful, so sweet, but firm and great structure. One of the words she frequently uses is 'connection' to help the kids understand how what she is teaching them is related. Owen will be playing and suddenly say, "Connection, Mom!" and then tell me about something he has been thinking about that he just realized was related. It's pretty fun.
