Joe is very much enjoying his second year at school! We were nervous at first, with a different teacher and building than last year, but both of them have been wonderful.

Miss Deena, his teacher, is great with him and sends sweet notes home every day:

His bus driver, Miss Theresa, is driving him for a second year now and loves him to pieces:

And he has a couple of new classmates, bringing his class size to four (he seems especially fond of Courtney):

Here he is showing Dada all the classroom amenities on “Meet the Teacher” night:

This week, his class joined all the older kids for “Picture Day,” having their portraits taken. (I’m told there’s also a yearbook, which is so cute I can’t even think about it for long.) Look for one of the wallet sizes, coming to a mailbox near you!
