I just had to take a minute a brag on our Benjamin. He is doing fantastic in kindergarten--in fact, he was student of the month for September. I had my first parent-teacher conference on Friday and his teacher had nothing but good things to say. He's always the one who is listening; he is making friends (always a parent's concern); he is reading some--which most in his class are not. We are just so pleased with how well he is doing in this new town and his new school! We have prayed for this since we found out we were moving--especially since Benjamin is one who does not do well when he is out of his routine and his "normal". He likes things "just so" and we were a little fearful that the move to Clyde and to, not only a new school that does things differently than the one he went to in Pre-K, beginning kindergarten would send him into a "tailspin". But he has adjusted better than we ever could have hoped for and is excited about school each and every day. He is, also, enjoying soccer and only has three more games left this season (hopefully I can remember to take my camera this Saturday to catch him in action--then I'll post some pics).
Of course, Madilyn and Jacob are doing well--when they're not getting on each other's nerves. They, also, have loved it here so far--but we were not as worried about them as we were Benjamin (they "go with the flow" a little better than he does).
We are counting down the weeks until we get to meet the new little Ellerbrook. We only have about 8 more weeks until that day comes (unless he comes sooner).
I will try to get some pics posted of the kids soon.
