FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

Well, we made it to Day One! Megan was very nervous and couldn't eat breakfast but couldn't wait to get out of here fast enough to "get the show on the road". She started 3rd grade & is in Mrs. Morgan's class. She is most excited about learning cursive handwriting this year. She said after school, "I love 3rd grade!" Lets hope that lasts all year...



Zach was also excited about going to day one of kindergarten. (although he called my mom to say he got his high school teacher's name) We got to school a little early and showed him where Megan's room was, she happened to be at recess so he got to talk and see her for a minute. As we walked over to his classroom, I suddenly felt the "death grip" on my hand and he was pulling me away from the class. I was thinking...oh boy, this is not going well at all. He said he wasn't going in and that he would "watch through the window." I finally coxed him in and then he did really well. That was a scary start, though. We'll see how it goes tomorrow! He's excited because he met a new friend named Jack and he likes him because he has the same name as Jack Sparrow. So as long as everything relates back to pirates we'll be doing good!

His teacher also had Megan for kindergarten asked me if he would be a teacher's pet like Megan was and I laughed and said "you tell me in a couple of weeks!"

That is such a funny story. Your kids look so cute on their first day. I'm glad we all survived.
