Bienvenidos

Although Liam's school doesn't officially start until after Labor Day, the Kindergarten Bienvenidos program kicked off today. It's a two-week introduction to the world of "real school", with half days and more English spoken before the full schedule and Spanish immersion program really begin. Because Liam gets pretty anxious about new situations, this is the perfect way for us to ease into the school year... So far, so good!

Here's Liam proudly showing off his Mario Kart backpack bling.

 And Greta (and Cinderella) had to get in on the photo action.
Afterwards, we hit up a local donut shop to celebrate. The kids had spotted these giant "mama" (I don't know why not "dada") donuts at a baseball game earlier this season, and Liam was quick to choose one for his first day treat. I think we'll be eating on this thing for awhile!!

Oh my word, now that's a donut! Glad to see smiles on his face and his excitement in his new school. Can't wait to hear all about it in a few weeks.
