Today is the first day of school. Our kids were unbelievably excited. They were bursting at the seams with excitement very very early this morning. By 7:00 they were telling me to hurry up in the shower. There school doesn't even start until 8:30 and we live right next to it. They were all dressed and fed with backpacks on before 8:00. It was great. I'd rather have them be overly excited than terrified.
Em was a little sad to loose his big brother. Rugs, on the other hand, was counting down the minutes until his big school debut.
The
girlies and their new school partner. All the "big kids" of the family ready to go.
My babies...
Em sad about the
twirlies leaving.
Breckyn in her new class. She didn't need me to stay. She was feeling the power of third grade. They get rights to the big kid play ground this year you know.
Z was being a goober. She was
stoked about her new crayons. They bumped her up the the 48 pack this year. Oh the possibilities!
My big man. He has been ready for this day for a long time now. He wanted to have hot lunch and everything big schoolish. My baby is growing up! (...and I didn't even cry about it...)
