First day of school....REJOICE!

The first day of school...the most dreaded day in our house...except by ME....or even Lindsey, for that matter....she loves school! We now have the experience & joy, also of traveling between 2 schools...Middle & Elementary! whoohoo...don't be too jealous now! We started off our first day of school morning at 6:30 A.M. The kids filled up on Pancake/sausage corndogs and cereal.
Of course...First day of school...PHOTO SHOOT!!!

7th grade and off to Middle school.....I kept it together(my tears!) until he got out of the car and I watched him walk into the building. I think I was more nervous and sick to my stomach than he was! Kindergarten was a piece of cake, compared to this feeling!
My big 5th grader! I'll be dropping her off at Middle school before I know it. She was so happy to get the teacher she wanted but, sad because almost all the friends she made last year, were of course, in the other class! Figures! Just Natalie's luck. It never can work out for her. I told her, well, she just gets to have her old friends and make a bunch of new ones too!
2nd grade, Lindsey! We were so happy to get the same 2nd grade teacher for the 3rd time! The teacher may think Tyler and Natalie were a piece of cake, compared to my Lindsey! Just kidding! They all love Lindsey. She is much different for them ,than she is for me....why is that???
I always tell them if they will pose for a few good ones....example~good smiles, looking at the camera, not bugging the person next to you....we can take some silly ones too. Still works!

HOLY COW! Middle school??!! How'd that happen so fast!?!?!?
I am too young! heehee..... :o)~

Lindsey's new spot for the next 10 months! ahhhhhaaaa! The first day of school, came and went! Now we are back to, schedules, homework, school lunches, bedtimes, PTA, lunch duty, girl/boy Scouts, fundraisers, parent club, soccer practices, and a week with no video games-(except weekends!). And you thought I was relieved that they went Back to school....Yes & No....the days just get busier...& I do miss them when they are at school and then they come home.... argue & fight with each other....and I sit there and say to myself....what was I thinking??
I gotta just remember to breathe...............
