The Wood Between the Worlds

Joshua was SO VERY excited to go back to school. He started asking me about it a few weeks after summer started. The first day of school for Joshua = pure bliss! He is so eager to learn and is such a nice, friendly soul.


Over the summer, we made the really tough decision that had to be made and we switched Joshua from Springwater Environmental Science School to our local neighborhood school. All last year I felt that the switch would be the right thing to do for Joshua, but I had such a hard time letting go of Science School and Friday Field Studies. But it has turned out that this switch has been the very best thing for Joshua. He loved Springwater, but he says that he loves his new school even more and doesn't ever want to leave! We'll see if he still feels that way when he's older :-). The transition was very quick and easy, and even better the 30 minute drive 4 times a day is now down to a 10 minute walk 4 times a day. The best part is that he is in the same class with his best buddy Kaden!
