PreSchool and College

A new school year brings new schools to attend, and new school activities for us.  I have three grand-daughters.   The oldest, Zanni,  is in her first year at the local Community College.  The youngest, Sadie, is now attending Pre-School at the same elementary school as her older sister, who is in first grade.   So the educational spread of my grandchildren goes from pre-school to college.

Last week, I had the delightful experience of going and helping pick Sadie up from school.   They were very meticulous about releasing each child individually, to the appropriate parent.

This evening, we had the pleasure of attending Zandrea's first volleyball game at her Community College. Sadly, they were soundly defeated.   Zanni plays on the "second string".   When they got to play during the third game, they did much better than the "first string".  It was also fun to see other family members there who came in support.

I have not been to the Community College campus in probably 20 years or more.  I could not believe my eyes.  There is a huge athletic facility with both inside and outside sports areas.  None of that was there before!   There is a large number of dormitories, perhaps as many as 8 or 10.  I was expecting maybe one or two buildings.  I just could not get over it.   It is amazing how much growth has taken place there over the years!

There is another game next week.  Maybe that one will be better.

In any case,  we have many more years of school events to look forward to.
