Back to School 2012

Two of my sons home school, so they've been doing school on and off all summer.  But for Isaiah, today was the first day of school.  Officially.  New grade. New friends.  New Class.  New School.

Garden City Elementary- lookout, here we come!

He may have been nervous, or excited or both.  The boy was up at 3:13am- full of chatter and asking for breakfast. 

Bacon.  The boy has to have his bacon.  And some yogurt.  We like to eat a balanced diet in our house.  :)

I walked him in, and he squeezed my hand a little tighter as we neared his classroom and he said, "Mommy, I didn't know there would be this many people."

He is brave.  And so stinkin' cute.

saying goodbye to Elijah- who gets to sleep in

and out the door, on time!

his classroom, and Ms. Gills

And he told us at dinner that his friend Bruce, who used to go to Burlington, who used to be in his class, who used to be his friend- is his friend in his new class at his new school. 

We decided God did that for him- cause God is cool that way.

It was a good day.

I will not lie - knowing this chart is coming home every day makes me all 'wiggly' inside.

My early riser, well he was sound asleep by 7:50 pm. 

Happy Monday y'all!
