3rd Grade Plaza Field Trip

I am so fortunate to work with some amazing co-workers who covered for me so I could attend this special 3rd grade field trip with my favorite 3rd grader! A scavenger hunt around the Plaza looking for special landmarks. Wouldn't you know it, this day was right in the middle of an extreme heatwave!!! And we felt every bit of that! We tried our best to walk on the shaded areas and stop in as many air conditioned places we could! But I wouldn't trade one bead of sweat to be anywhere else than that field trip with my big fella!!









 This is how we all felt as we walked back to meet the bus...super hot and super tired!

First Day of 3rd Grade!


Can't believe we have a 3rd grader!! Time sure has flown! After Sneak a Peek night Monday, while walking home, Grant said, "Ok, now I'm excited for school!" The afternoon prior he was still insistent that he was not going to school!! But, he woke up chipper and excited and had a big 3rd grade pep in his step!!!  He's still such a sweet boy, letting me hold his hand while walking to school, letting me and Wyatt walk him to his class, and give him a hug in a kiss without the slightest hint of embarrassment. He was already getting to work when I left the room and my heart ached a little bit knowing I wouldn't be seeing him for 8 hours!!! I met him in the hallway at the end of the day and he had a big smile on his face and said he loved it! Recess went awry with a kickball game that turned out "disastrous" but all in all, he gives 3rd grade two thumbs up!!! We celebrated with our dessert before dinner- Blizzards!!!





I prayed over the boys last night and asked God to help Grant follow in Jesus' footsteps and grow in wisdom, that he will be the light of Jesus to everyone around him, and that this school year will be filled with learning, growth, joy, and fun! I will continue to pray this everyday Grant, so that 3rd grade may be your best year YET!!!
