School Boy

We wrote last week about Drew starting school. He did have a good first week and we felt very positive with how he was doing. So, he has continued. He loves going to school and he loves talking about it. As is standard for all students at CCCD, he also needs to wear a uniform. Wednesday was the first day he wore his uniform. It was ridiculously adorable and he looked like such a little scholar. Sometimes you never know what will "turn the crank" of the deaf, but Drew in a school uniform did just that. I dont know if it was his official welcome into their world or if they had never seen a white kid in a uniform, or what the excitement was. But as we walked down the hill towards school, we walked past the middle school chapel and maybe 15 kids came out screaming and squawking about Drew and his uniform. This happened all morning with all of the kids and most of the staff. We couldnt go 5 steps without someone calling out or commenting about him and his uniform. It was unreal. Anyways, we continue to pray that this will be a good experience for him. Oh the transitions, we cannot believe that we are "doing homework" with our little Drew. We also posted a few other pictures of the kids HERE.
