Today marked another milestone: first day of school in Germany! You may or may not be surprised to hear that both children were EXTREMELY excited for this new adventure. They spent the weekend organizing supplies. Boris even went as far as to claim he was “sick and tired of relaxing”. After school, the two of them walked home together. We went with them in the morning just to leave contact information with the principal.
Aw! Are they starting now so that they can meet classmates, etc?
No, they went to school today and Anna and I sat down to watch Coronation Street and eat bonbons. Seriously, we did. They are in school now until we find a place to live so they have something to do. They actually complained about being too relaxed and wanted to go to school.
My favorite part is the bonbon part. Can we sen dour kids away while we’re visiting too? Then the four of us can just eat the days away!!
They seem to love the foreign kids in this school so I don’t see why not. It is a tiny school that only has 7 classes between 1 and 4.
