Amara and Havana started their 10th & 12th years of school. I have written previously about my feelings about them growing up way too fast so I will keep this post short and simple.
Amara started the year with college on her mind and with her camera always nearby. She was excited to learn more about her craft in honors art, further her Spanish language abilities and to spend time with her friends.
Havana is in a different space. She is still adjusting to Bentley and I think that she is settling in nicely. She too enjoys art, photography in particular, Spanish and her friend group.
By the end of the year Amara will have chosen her college. Havana will be on her way to her Junior year. It is all going so fast but overall the girls are thriving. We have challenges with some subjects but have found some tutors for those courses and they are giving it their best. Their school has high expectations for academics and while that is important, I want them to enjoy the remaining years of their childhood. Going out with friends, seeing concerts, having healthy and fun teen experiences is equally important as sitting in the classroom.
Here’s to the 2024-2025 school year.
