Esther's new school!

After visiting many schools in Decatur/Atlanta and listening to E beg to go to school for over a month, we decided on Decatur Montessori. It is very similar to Morningstar, her Athens school, but is larger and goes up to 6 years old. Esther is in the 3-6 classroom and has already met a few friends. Today was her first day, but she had already met a little girl in her class through all the Emory shin-digs last week. One of Ben's classmate's daughter, Lily, and Esther hit it off immediately. I'm so glad she has found a new place to grow and learn. They have multiple gardens, classroom pets (fish, lizards, turtles), and lots of outdoor areas to explore - even in the middle of the city. I did not get a picture of her first day at the new school, but will try to get some at the school potluck this Friday. Here is the link to the school for those interested. Decatur Montessori School. And follow this link for a little video they school has put together to introduce DMS.
