Last Wednesday was the big FIRST DAY OF SHOOL for the kids. My little buddy Mitchell is no longer little... he started Kindergarten (sniff..sniff...sniff!) Rylee started Pre-School. Lorne even got emotional when dropping them off this day. It was just sad to see him standing in the line in the hall getting ready to enter his classroom with a big smile on his face and he just looked SO BIG!! After we dropped Mitchell off, we went to take Rylee and this girl has no fear. She took her back pack, put it on and turned her head straight up into the sky and started strutting her way into school with her hand on her hip... like she has done this THOUSANDS of times!! "HELLOOO".... i said " where's my hug?" "oh" she said, then pranced back to me, hugged me quickly and again was on her way to be independent for the rest of her life!
Later that day when I went to pick up the kids, Rylee did the same thing when I picked her up...just looking like she was living on cloud nine! Mitchell on the other hand was different. He got in the car and I said " how was your first day of school?" then he said "hmmm, ... it was boring" very matter of factly!! You can always count on kids to tell you JUST how it is!!
All in all is was a good day and we are all adjusting around here to this new little schedule!
