First Day of School: Cavan Edition


Last Thursday Cavan had his first day of 5th grade.  FIFTH!  I still can't believe he's ten years old and that this year will be his last in "Lower School."  Gone are the days of tears and separation anxiety on the first day.  By now he knows the drill.  He has friends and close bonds with kids he's known and been on this journey with for years.  He loves his teacher.  And his best friend is in his class - again - this year.  He's in a new afterschool program this year and will enjoy exciting classes such as skateboarding, swimming, guitar, and improvisational comedy.  And of course, he'll continue on with baseball and basketball.  We're all looking forward to this new year and watching the slow but steady march of our ten year old toward adulthood.
