1st Day of School!!

Fun, Exciting, Happy (& a little sad)--so many emotions!! Today is the 1st day of school! We have one starting High School and one starting Kindergarten!! Just wanted to share a couple pictures and some thoughts.

I always take pictures on the 1st day of school. Our Oldest tried to sneak out and get in the car this morning to avoid the pictures! He always say "oh mom!" and then there is our youngest who can't wait to have his picture taken!

Our oldest is in 9th grade. I think he was excited and maybe a little nervous too, but I know he'll never admit it-lol! They have to be so cool--ya know! I am excited for him and I hope he has many great high school experiences!! But then the mother in me is a little sad too knowing that the next four years is going to fly by and before I know it he will be all grown up.
Our youngest started Kindergarten today!! He was soooooo excited!!! He told me, "Oh I'm so excited, I've waited my whole life for this day!!" He didn't seem nervous one little bit, he was ready to go! On the way to school this morning he said, "Mommy I'm going to miss you today." Fighting back the tears I said, "I'm going to miss you too!" Where does the time go? Don't blink--they grow up so fast!!

I hope for all of you with children in school that you have a great year!!
Have a great week!

  2. That's cute! Evan waited his whole life for starting school! :) Reminds me of when Nina told me that the day I took them to the Panhandle Fair (their first) it was the best day of her life. She was 6! :) Aren't they just so cute at that age!
