Trip to the dentist and the first day of school!

What a big day this has been! Annika was so excited to finally get to start school today! But, first she had her first dentist appointment where she got a really report!  We absolutely LOVE our hygenist, Mrs. Sarah and our dentist, Dr. Lovering! Both of them greeted Annika warmly and were awesome with her! Mrs. Sarah even let Annika assist while Asher and I got our teeth cleaned too! 

Annika got to school about 10:30 am and we headed to join her class. She was went from excited to nervous pretty quick, but I stayed with her for most the day. Her teacher and her classmates are the best of the best! The patience, kindness and love that our school exhibits and exemplifies is above and beyond!  Annika has truly joined a loving school family and by the time 1:15 pm rolled around, I was standing outside of the class, looking in at my very happy girl participating and engrossed in math with her class! We are now home from school and she is excitedly making up multiplication problems and solving them as "homework". She is chattering happily away with her brother, Eli, and I can't help but smile at how happy she is. I think it's safe to say that she loves school and has had a great first day!




God is good!

I'm glad Annika's dentist visit went well. We had a first experience with the dentist too, and my husband and I were concerned about our daughters apprehensive worrying. Thank goodness the professional manner and helpfulness put her at ease and she actually had a good time. It is good to get through these experiences with our kids and it's great to be there and support them.
