Reese and Asher started 3rd and 1st grade, respectively, today on a beautiful morning. We almost had a bit of a hiccup as they weren't technically enrolled as of yesterday. When I enrolled the kids in school in RI this summer (we thought we might be staying there for the school year at one point) RI sent notification to the school here in Helena and so they unenrolled the kids. Well, when we decided to come back in August, I forgot to call the school and let them know. Luckily, CK ran into Reese and Asher's Kindergarten teacher in Walmart this weekend who thought we had moved. The (very nice) principal called yesterday and was gracious enough to forgive our mistake despite the fact that they had no additional spots at the school. Luckily by today everything was resolved and R&A even got to keep their original teachers, whom they were very excited about. Sometimes it's really great to live in a small town with very understanding neighbors/friends.
