Eric was excited for school to start, too, but even with that excitement, he just isn't much of a morning person. He did manage to eat and get dressed before his bus arrived. He still was in denial that he was moving to a new class this year, so I pray that all went well once he arrived and saw some familiar faces in his class.
Lily laoshe (teacher) was still his bus monitor, which helped a lot. She was also one of his assistant teachers last year. The assistant teacher rotate around classes and even back and forth between his school and a sister school. They didn't know where they would be working at the end of the year, so she may even be his assistant teacher again, which would help him a lot with the transition.
Then he just bolted for the bus - this was as fast as I could take a second picture after the one with him and Lily
Then he refused to look back and get another one at the bus - he was ready to go!
