Following the last post, the kids have continued to enjoy school, and as stated by Ethan..."Alex and I are the best two kids in our class". Not sure how true that is, but at least Alex (our summer-time pool friend who is a girl and has decided she is going to marry Ethan) and Ethan agree. Izzy has told everyone she is an artist, including her PE teacher and classroom teacher. As she says "I am an artist, so I need new running shoes". Their separation into separate classrooms seems to have had minimal impact, luckily, and they both seem enamored by their teachers and "being in Kinder".
We received the list of afterschool classes, which for the first time in the history of their school, will be free. So the kids get to pick as many as they would like....ranging from Animal Arts and Crafts (guess who picked that one!) to Jr. Computers and Jr. Soccer. As of today, Ethan has decided he wants to do Jr. Soccer (so "I can play with the other boys!") and Yoga (because you like Yoga mommy!) while Izzy has decided on Jr. Cooking (so "I can teach you to cook mommy") and Animal Arts and Crafts. At the end of the month ballet, kung fu and potentially swimming will begin, so their lives of leisure will end:)
nice, sounds like separating them didn't end in disaster :) love the classes they could pick from and their reasoning - i hope izzie can teach me to cook in oct. :D plus, i would love to do animal arts and crafts!!
