So far, so good

The kids have all settled in the new school year and so far, all is well. Matthew is off to a good start in his first taste of high school. An A in math and B in English is a nice change of pace indeed. I warned Matthew that if he kept it up, he might end up on honor roll, and then would he do? Matthew just grinned at that. (if only he was that way at home) He's even made a couple friends at lunch and in class, and his resource teacher is really great. I talked to him for quite a while during open house and he's definitely going to have Matthew's back for the next 4 years. The guy grew up in Ogdensburg, so we got to chat about the north country. Kristen has made a ton of friends since we got here, so she's doing well in the middle school. Alice did have to change schools since our base school was different than when we were in the apartment, but so far, she is doing well and she likes it there. We definitely ended up with a good school situation.
