First Day of School 2010-11

Last Monday was the first day of school for Colin and Chloe. School in Belgium starts at age 2 1/2 but the catch is that they need to be potty trained. Chloe has made the transition from diapers to underwear fairly easily.

Colin told me that his first day was the "best day of school EVER". Unlike Colin, most of the kids in his class live permanently in Beglium so it is nice to see the same group of kids return for school ever year.
