Goodbye First Grade!

Golden had a great year in first grade. He made lots of friends, was chased by lots of girls, and was frequently awarded for academics and citizenship. What more could a first grader want?! He takes school very seriously and we are proud of him for that. I was able to spend a lot of time helping in his classroom, and first graders are a treat for sure. At the end of the year I received a sweet book with letters of thanks from Goldens classmates--half the class commented on how good my breath smells. Thanks first graders!! (And for those of you that asked, Extra gum and tic tacs are what I use, but cupcakes smell good, too.) Now that the year is over, we are happy to see he is lightening up for the summer--he spends a fair amount of time lifting 2 lb. weights and talking about his 6 pack. I guess that's balance.
