First Day of School

The first day of school has come. This morning I woke up thinking that what ever could go wrong would. I wouldn't be able to get the kids ready on time, I would forget to pack them something they needed, ect. Not true. We were all up, including Mica, and ready with half an hour to spare.Nick was off to Kindergarten! How could this be? Surely my children can't be growing up that fast. Although I couldn't get him to cooperate while I took pictures of him, I think he was excited to start this new adventure in his life.And Carson, My 2nd grader, he was so wonderful. Talking to Nick and telling him things about school. He is an awesome big brother. Carson is also very excited about the fact that in 2nd grade you get to learn about Dinosaurs!!! The best part of this morning! Carson was leading Nick to his classroom. Showing him the way and giving him brotherly advice! (this is the part where Mom teared up!)The saddest part of this morning was when Mica realized that she would not be attending school with the boys. She asked where her desk was in Nick's room, and was ok when we said this was Nick's class and she didn't have a chair here. When the same thing happened in Carson's classroom I think it was too much. She broke down into tears, realizing that we had run out of classrooms and still she had no seat. She is still crying 45 minutes later, as I type this post. HEART BREAKING!!! Mica didn't want Ted and I in the pictures with the boys, she wanted them all to herself. Typical girl!

It goes so fast, I can't believe Nick is in school now too. Carson was such a great help. I would have teared up too. Thanks for posting.
