Kenley starts school

Kenley was really unsure the first day we took Tatum to school.   She cried quietly that morning as we dropped Tatum off.  I am sure the unknown of what was happening had to be fearful.  As the week progressed she understood that Tatum went to school and we picked her up then we were all together again.  Each day she looked forward to the time to go pick Tatum up from school.  She clapped and grinned saying Tatum Tatum.  I used google translate to ask Kenley if it made her sad to take Tatum to school, she nodded yes.  I asked if she would like to go to school with Tatum and again a yes.  I then asked if she was afraid of going to school and she gave a big nod of no and smiled.  So Kenley and I set out to get her immunizations up to date and register her for school.  It has been almost a full week of school and she is doing amazing. The pictures above are from her first day, the last one is of the girls home after a great day and ready to do homework.  We feel so fortunate that Kenley was placed in to a class that has been so accepting.  Our hopes had been that Kenley would come home this past summer and we would begin school in the fall.  Since that didn't happen one of my worries was for Kenley and how she would adjust being thrown in to a class of unfamiliar children and unable to understand anything being said.  Well NO WORRIES again God showed me that He is in control and I'm not.  Kenley's teacher welcomed Kenley with open arms and has loved her in a way I could never imagined.  Again we are so blessed by the amazing people God keeps placing in our lives.  Her situation at school could not be any better, with a teacher that has not only welcomed Kenley, loved and accepted her but a new class of friends that have been so kind.  Kenley may not be able to tell us what she is thinking or what she feels but her face says it all.  She is happy to be at school and is ready to learn new things.
