Second grade brought many new changes to my life. I got a new home in a new town. I got a new school, a new teacher, and all new friends. Although at first I was nervous leaving the Cape the only home Id ever known, I quickly realized that I might actually fit in. The biggest surprise was how awesome my teacher was. We started emailing together, she inspired me to write, and be the best student I could be. When I had to say goodbye to her at the end of second grade I felt gloomy. It's always sad to leave behind good memories, a whole lot of fun, and a place where I felt special. But a girl has to grow up. And now, I'm in 3rd grade!!
My new teacher is named Ms.Merrit. She is very different from my old teacher, but I think I'm going to enjoy it. I have lots of new classmates, new rules to learn, and even some new opportunities. One of these is a chance to take violin lessons. Another one is to participate in this thing called girls on the run (I'm in it!). Finally, there's travel soccer. There's gonna be a lot of good material for blog posts. So stay tuned.
What a great blog post Nuala, so expressive and we'll written!! Dad
