Thursday was KinderCamp! The parents talked to the principal and the kids played with the teachers and other kindergartners. Emily had a great time. Mommy, well, Mommy got stressed a bit - HA!
Her school is just going to be so big this year and it makes me worried - there are going to be 1100 students this year! Most elementaries in LISD have 500-600 kids - YIKES! The good thing is, a new school is opening NEXT year and the school will be a normal size again!
We learned how to drop off, how to pick up, what they'll do during the day and even that we can come eat lunch with her if we want - at 10:15 in the morning - that's like breakfast isn't it??
The last day of this sessions swimming is NEXT Thursday, but since we have open house next Thursday, the kids finished up this week.
Emily is doing great - she can swim freestyle very well and almost has the breast stroke down pat. She occasionally does an extra frog kick during the breast stroke, but all in all she's doing GREAT! We aren't starting her right away in the fall - I hear Kinder kids are just wiped out the first month or so of school - but when we start back up she'll be learning the butterfly and backstroke.
Elliot is a crazy man in the water. He has no fear at all ... he jumps off the side all by himself and can hold his breath for 10 seconds! We'll have him in lessons in the fall because he really enjoys it and asks to go under over and over again - maybe he's a dolphin boy just like Phelps ... HAHAHA!
