Lucas will begin attending Grade 1 at The King's School on Wednesday, January 11. The schools in South Africa follow the calendar year so January brings a new year of school for all the children. All schools require uniforms so we had fun shopping and finding all the necessary pieces for Lucas. The scratches on his face were from a bicycle crash he had Sunday night. He completely bent his front tire so we were happy with a few scratches and no broken bones. We are excited to hear his stories from his first day but we aren't so excited to have to be up quite so early in the morning. School for the younger grades begins at 7:45am! Lucas' school day ends at 1pm so we will still have lots of time to play in the afternoons and evenings. We are so proud of our handsome young first grader!
