It’s hard to believe Katelynn started 4th grade today. Well…it is, and it’s not. Sometimes it seems like she should be in 9th grade. She borrowed Nick’s phone after school so she could text me about how her day was. The low-down? She was starving at lunch because she was too nervous to eat breakfast, so she was glad I hid some M&M’s in her lunch box. (Yes! Cool mom points.) The agenda books at her new school have hologrammed covers, which is rockstar. She met some new friends, and thinks 4th grade will be awesome because “you GET to have an hour and a half of homework!” (um…yeah. totally excited. for real.)

I’m stoked about her being in 4th grade because I loved 4th grade…mainly because we went HERE for an overnight field trip and it was by far my favorite elementary school memory. I figure Katelynn will make the transition easily…she’s extremely outgoing, and it can’t hurt that her dad’s the hot P.E. teacher. ;)

Looks like this little monkey’s gonna fit right in!
