Farewell Grade One.
I have very mixed feelings about you.
September was such a time of excitement and hope! A little boy ready to learn and filled with interest and confidence.

| First day of Grade 1. |
June shows a smaller boy, with less smiles, and a sad heart. One who is hard on himself and feels alone. One who desperately wants to fit in and achieve but can't find the yellow brick road.

Grade One gave me insight. Not the kind I wanted to experience first hand. It also gave me the opportunity to volunteer and appreciate W's amazing teacher (she is/was!), experience first hand the gaps in the system, and the hilarity of precocious 6yr olds.
Here's to a wonderful summer and rebuilding the heart of our W.
