Life Lessons

Amaya came home from school today and told Scott "It's too easy, I don't like to go anymore!"
"I already learned this stuff in the first grade!!"
Poor Amaya, the little genius, has to endure all the new school stuff. The teachers haven't had time to assess the students yet, and they filled her folder with reading material that she was reading in kindergarten. It is actually kind of funny to me. I love that she is smart, and LOVES to learn, but one thing that she really needs to learn is patience.
I talked to her teacher yesterday and they are all just getting accustomed to being back in school, meeting all the other kids and learning classroom rules and schedules.
She will be fine in a couple of weeks.

Poor Amaya! Already bored with second grade - thats what she gets for being a little smarty! I am sure it will be better for her once they realize what she is capable of.

Must be an oldest child thing. Justin is "bored with school". We "never do anything interesting" This on the first day of 3rd grade. What little smartie pants they are.. Can't wait to see what remarkable young people they will turn into.
