Wellness and Changes

After Joel being sick on Tuesday with vomiting, he finally returned to school yesterday [Thursday]. I was so relieved to see Joel becoming his normal self on Wednesday and his appetite returning. I don't know what made him sick but it looked like it was only a stomach bug. Glad it wasn't anything more serious like Rotavirus.

So, Joel started the 2nd Grade this year. On Friday the 22nd, the school posted the class schedules for this year. My husband and I were wondering why Joel was in a 1st & 2nd Grade classroom instead of an only 2nd Grade class. Didn't really had the chance to talk to Joel's teachers until yesterday. I got a call from the Principal and she told me Joel was going to be changing teachers and classrooms to an all 2nd Grade class only. Then later that day, Joel's current teacher calls me to let me know about the change. I was happy!! I then asked her about why they put 1st and 2nd Grade class in a same classroom... she told me it was because of the changes in the last minute about kids that are registered then moved away at the last minute so they have to rearrange the classes and the students again. Finally, there was a teacher available to take these 2nd Graders (yaay!). So starting on Tuesday, the Principal is going to take these 2nd Graders to a little tour to their new classroom and to meet their new teacher. This year, Joel's going to have only one teacher. Hope all works out well and she's a good teacher.

Labor Day is this Monday!! Many people see Labor Day as the end of Summer... but Summer is not officially over until September 21st. The first day of Fall is September 22nd. In a way, I am happy Summer is coming to an end because I don't like hot days... I just can't stand having temperatures over 95° in the Summer time. Still, cool weather for us doesn't come until the end of November [if we are lucky] or December. Warm days are still September, October, and sometimes November. I just can't wait for some cool weather and some rainy days too.
