First Day of School

Joshua had a good first day of school. Jon and I walked with him the 20 minute-walk to school. Then Jon was able to pick him up after school since Jon is currently between work projects. They had a fun afternoon, then off to soccer practice and I got to sit with Joshua this evening while he did his homework -- yep, about two pages of writing plus 30 minutes of reading. Lots of work for 4th graders.

Here are pictures of him with his two teachers: Mrs. Porter for English and Sr. Martinez for Spanish.
Tomorrow Jon leaves for two weeks of Marine Corps duty down in San Diego. We may see him one weekend, but probably not both. That means that Joshua will take a van to the Boys & Girls Club after school tomorrow. Hopefully he will get all of his homework done there before I pick him up around 4:15. Then we can have the evening to play instead of sitting at the table doing homework right up till bedtime. :)
All for now.
