1st day of School

School wasn't an easy single first day. It was several first days.

Bug started 1st grade on Monday, August 24. He was very excited and once he realized how many friends would be in his class he couldn't wait for school to start.

 I took both the boys for first day.

 1st Grade

 Ali Baba had his kindergarten orientation on Monday, but he didn't actually start school until Thursday. By Thursday he was so ready for school that he wanted to ride the bus to school and the carpool from. I felt a little displaced, but at least my little tear shed wasn't witnessed by all the other mothers.

Preschool, Sissy started preschool today, she was so excited, all last week and missed her brothers a little, but this morning she went to school and couldn't stop talking when she got home.

 New shoes for preschool.

Another independent, she gave me kisses, but turned to the toys and new friends with out a backward glance.

I am excited to have a few hours a week to myself and get some things done, but today felt quiet and a little at loose ends, but too soon the time will fly and I'll barely have time to get all the things that I want to get done.
