....but who's counting?
The first day of school is almost as much fun as Christmas.
New clothes, new school supplies, new backpacks and butterflies the night before.
MacKenzie was so excited for her first day of kindergarten.
She went straight to the playground holding hands with Addie Mindar and never looked back.
Daycee and I followed the blue line to the first grade playground and as we rounded the corner she gave me a hug, said "I love you" and dashed off to find her friends.
That's a big difference from last year when I had to line up with her and wait for her teacher to come out and pick her up for the first few weeks.
Harly never hesitated on the first day of school. She was confident and in a hurry to meet up with her friends. (She did her own hair for school.) I'm very proud of the nice young lady she is becoming. She's definately into fashion way more than I ever was.
Carson was a little worn out and sore from the night before, football practice. It was the first day of hitting drills and he layed everyone out. I think Carson was a little nervous for his first day of school. His homeroom teacher Mrs. Speicher has the reputation of being the "mean" teacher. She is a good teacher and little rough on the edges. Carson had a good day but was mostly concerned about football practice again. (the hitting drills can be a little scary)
Clayton was ready to be back in the swing of things. He was the first one up and ready for school fast. He gets dropped off first and every day last year we would exchange "I love you's". Not this year, he was out of the car with a bye and never looked back. I guess 7th graders are too cool for mom and dad. Clayton is also playing football and is one of the best defensive tacklers. It's propably from all the practice at home with his brother. I knew that energy would pay off one day.
Starting next week, Aarron goes to preschool Mon-Thurs from 12:15 - 3:45. What will I ever do with myself? Life is good! Maybe Adam will learn how to walk now that nobody is home to bother him.
