Quinn's First Day of Fourth Grade

Fourth grade, here comes Quinn!   After Nolan headed off to middle school, it was Quinn's turn to get ready for her first day back.  She leaves a little over an hour after Nolan so it has been nice to spend some time with each kid as they head out the door.  She was excited to put on the cute outfit that she had picked out and she wanted to curl her hair.  She looked the part of a fourth grader for sure!  

Quinn had a little more nerves this year as she doesn't have one really good friend in her class but she knows a handful of girls that are mutual friends and was brave on the first day back as she got on the bus ready to confidently make some new friendships.  She has Mrs. Berrigan and Mrs. Beach this year and they both seem wonderful from our brief meeting during open house.  Mrs. Berrigan is a veteran teacher and I'm excited to have her years of expertise on our side.  Quinn loves her so far and has come home from the bus happy so that makes me happy.  I'm sure she will have a wonderful year and I'm looking forward to watching her grow.

Reese is in 5th this year so I'm sure Quinn will be sad next year when she no longer is at the bus stop.  I'm glad they still have one another and they are able to sit together on the bus both ways.  These two have been best buds since they were toddlers so it's fun to see them still so close to this day.
