Along with the purchase of our new home, we also started new schools for the kids. Luke is now attending Edgemoor Community Center, 2 minutes down the road from the house. Since we moved to our house in July Carlita and Luke attended there for a month before Carlita started kindergarden.
And yes our first born has started kindergarden. She is attending Las Americas Aspira Academy, a bilingual school back in Newark, DE. She could attend Mt. Pleasant Elementary, right next to Luke's school but we wanted her to have this experience. It is a new school and there's been some growing pains. Karl has to drop them all of and twice a week we have a sitter pick up the kids since I get home right at 6pm from work. Carlita stays in an after school program run by the Latin American Community Center (LACC). She really loves it and her teacher.
The first day was rough for me, some tears. Carlita hated putting on an uniform but once she saw the other kids she loves wearing it. I did have to bride her with a Barbie (yes I bought her the only Barbie I even bought for her) but it was a special gift for her first day of school. Now she comes home every day and we review her "sight words" and talk about her day. It's amazing how big she is getting and how much she is learning. She can sign and dance in spanish and english.
Check out this video and the pictures. I'm so proud of my kids but miss the baby-stage. O well life goes on
