Back to School 20-21

The kids started back to school on August 11, 2020. Due to the continuation of concerns for the coronavirus, they started back to school virtually for the first two weeks.

They were not super thrilled to go back virtually, but thanks to my parents, brother Corey, and sister in law Daphne they had the equipment needed to start. We got through the first two virtual weeks and then on August 24th they began in person!
Ella began high school at Atascocita High School and was nervous about navigating a very large school she hadn't ever been in, but she did great. 
Cavin is in 7th grade at TMS again and had a good first day as well.
Channing started 4th grade and was so excited to meet her teacher Mrs. Mitcham and be back with her friends.
Deacon started 1st grade and I am SO glad I had him go last year so I didn't have to send him in blind this year. He did well and loves his teacher Mrs. Rieves. 
He went upstairs at 5:45 p.m. to get clothes to take a shower and never came down so I went to check and he had fallen asleep! He slept for 13 hours. He was worn out after months of being home!

As in true 2020 fashion, they got to have school for 2 days and now it was cancelled because hurricane Laura was supposed to come through. Thankfully it has missed us and we were very blessed.
In other news. The NBA is doing fans virtually in Florida for the playoffs, so the kids were able to be on tv as fans cheering on the Rockets. 
Lastly, Ella did Literacy Girls this summer with friends and Jeri Wyn Mumford was her instructor. She does such an amazing job. They studied some classics like Secret Garden, Anne of Green Gables, 100 dresses, Sarah Plain and Tall and such. Ella who loves to read really loves it each summer. 
They did a skit on the book 100 dresses and did a good job. 
I am praying this year only goes up from here. We all could use some positive news!
