Baby Gabe Goes to School

This past Wednesday, we visited Grammie's first grade class. Gabe had a ball. He likes to check out new places and he loves kids...so an elementary school was a fun day for him. The first graders were so cute and shouted with joy "Baby Gabe!" At one point I was on the ground holding him and they all swarmed me like bees to honey to hug and 'pet' him. You would think he would get overwhelmed, but he smiled and giggled at all the attention.
Since last year's first graders knew all about Baby Gabe from his referral, we had to visit the second grade classes. We couldn't leave the kindergartners out, so we had to visit them too. One little girl told me she couldn't stop staring at him because he was so cute. Gabe was a good boy and hung on to Grammie as she beamed while showing off her new grandson to all her co-workers and students.


Thanks to all the Dolphins for a fun day...see you at Halloween!

Oh, that is too funny! My mom is an elementary school teacher too, and her kids have been following our journey VERY closely! When Claire comes home, we HAVE to bring her to meet both this year and last years classes!
