FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

Bummer! It's back to school time where we have to be on a schedule and go to bed early and wake up early. I guess we will get over it! The kids were all excited to go back to school and see all of their friends. I wasn't ready for school to start just yet but I am always that way. I love having the kids at home so that we can play and have fun. This year is quit different because I have ALL my kids in school ALL day.AHHHHHH. It has been so long since I have had time to myself I'm not sure what I want to do with all this free time. (Any suggestions would be appreciated) Juju's first day of 1 st grade.
Mckray's first day of 3rd grade.
Bridger's first day of 7th grade. The 7th graders went a day early to get used to Jr. High and go through all the day without the whole school there. I found myself crying very unexpectedly when we dropped him off to school. It was like sending him to kindergarten again.
Aubrey's first day of 11th grade. We bought her a car this summer so that she could drive to school. When she drove off to school by herself this is when Regan started to get teary eyed. (don't tell him I told ya) We both are a bunch of softies when it comes to our kids. They are growing up way too fast for us and at times we wish we had a rewind button.

Cute pictures! Mckray looks so cute! I was almost teary eyed reading your post, I don't know how you and Gub made it through the day!:) I'm glad everything was good when you got home the other night. I'm so glad you stayed for the movie! That was really fun, we need to do more things together. See you saturday!

I love first day of school pictures! I hope everything went well for all the kiddies.

I just went back to work part time (teaching art at the middle school). Ryder will be in kindergarten next year, but this opportunity came up so I felt like I couldn't pass it up.

I think you should you to the district office and apply for aid positions, you would be great, and it's a nice schedule to have with your kids.
