This weekend Eleanor and Henry went to the local circus. It is a fun little event that they hold in the park with mostly gymnastic related activities. They both seemed to have a good time, although I think Henry’s favorite part was the pre-event face painting, and the after event spaghetti eating :) We also watched a bit of the Lion’s game, but unfortunately they lost in the last minute.
So far, school is going well for both kiddos. Eleanor has had a few homework assignments, and we are still figuring out our routine for that – Eleanor remembered the first assignment as she was putting her shoes on to head to school in the morning! Fortunately, we were running a bit early and could finish the work before school started. Henry has been excited about getting a class job, and was especially excited about the Friday assembly that featured “Bubble Man” who did lots of tricks with bubbles. Henry said he “raised his hand as high as I could” but alas didn’t get selected to be one of the two kids who were put completely inside of a bubble.
