First Days of School

Well, Eli started school yesterday and Jax started his first day of preschool today! Eli came home after a looooong day of orientation, and he seems excited for what this second year of dental school has in store. From what I understand, it will be less focussed on the science academics and more focussed on hands-on and pharmaceutical training. It is exciting to feel like we are making progress in meeting our goal to get out of the "living as students" phase!

I am waiting for Jax to come home from Preschool right now. He is being taught by a woman in our neighborhood who studied Elementary Education at BYU and has works as the Primary President in our ward. Jax was thrilled to start preschool with Miss Emily today, and I can't wait for him to come home so I can hear all about it! I think they were studying the Letter A today, and each child brought 3-4 show-n-tell items to get to know eachother. He is in a class with 5 other kids, all of them are either 3 or 4 years old (I think). I hope he's loving it!
