I can’t believe we’re already two weeks into the new school year! Summer always goes by fast, but I’m surprised at how fast the school year is already moving. The girls have settled into their new classes, I’ve gotten to visit them at their school and we’ve enjoyed a parent night to learn all about what to expect this year. We are all exhausted {Sophie can barely make it through dinner}, but they are both really enjoying their teachers and new friends.
When Ella began kindergarten, I started interviewing them sometime during the first few days of the new school year. I love going back and comparing their answers to the years before. Since we’ve become big fans of video this summer, they decided they wanted to answer their questions on film and that’s just what we did before bed on Wednesday night. I’m sharing their answers down below, along with some first day of school photos, just in case you can’t watch the video right away. Enjoy!
