Monday was the first day of school in Palm Beach County. It was so strange not being at a school to see the fresh haircuts, new supplies, and the overall excitement of a new school year. I’m looking forward to finally visiting my two elementary schools next week. At the start of this week there was talk that school would be closed Thursday and Friday due to Hurricane Irene. Hoor and I have to get used to the way they sensationalize the hurricanes here. The news warned South Floridians to stock up on water and food before the end of the week. Although she caused much destruction in the Dominican Republic and the Bahamas, she will miss Florida and only cause heavy storms along the way. The news this evening showed many surfers enjoying the larger than usual waves at Fort Lauderdale Beach.
Welcome class of 2024! Wednesday was the first day of Kindergarten for my niece, Sabreena and my nephew, Shariq. They have only been waiting for this day since May! I'm happy to report they both had a great first day and made some new friends. Their favorite part was recess. Go figure! Ah, to be 5 again!
Wishing all of the teachers and students in my life a wonderful school year!
So, your niece and nephew did awesome yesterday. I was really proud of both Shariq and Sabreena!!! Sabreena ate lunch with 2 new friends - Maddie and Nolan. So, I asked them, are there any Indian kids in your class. Shariq says and I quote "Nolan, Nathan, Rachel - Mommy there are a lot of indians in my class...they all have brown skin :)".
