FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL...

First day of school.. the children were ready 20 minutes before we needed to leave.. Hannah thought she was going to school too. She was a bit sad when she realized we would be leaving her brother and two sisters at school and walking home, just the two of us.
Cassie- going to full day Kindergarten this year. The first few days have gone really well with learning all the rules.. she is a bit bored with the activities chosen, says it is just like preschool.
Emeline- entering the 3rd grade this year and very excited. She got to pick a seat by two of her friends and so far life is good.
Micah- a big 4th grader. He is already feeling the new, higher expectations but has told me he is really ready for it. He has a planner from the school to write down what and when things are due and is on his way to a great year.

Hannah and Laina walking to school.. the only two on this trip that would be walking back with their parents and leaving their playmates behind..
Hannah decided to walk all the way there. Cassie pushed the empty stroller.
Cassie getting settled in her classroom and starting in her journal. She got right into the work that was laid out for  them. Hannah starts preschool next week and we hope that she can stay healthy enough to continue going through out the year. This will be her first real exposure to illnesses passed with the kids have brought home.  I started into my classes the last few weeks and are well under way.. so far so good!
