First Day of School

School started yesterday!

I was just as nervous as all the kids. This year we have 5 in school. Little Lucy started kindergarten and Carson started junior high. They grow up so fast. Our schedule is broken up quite a bit but I am so grateful for buses this year. I would be living out of the car if we didn't have them. Carson catches the bus a little before 7. Callie, George, and Ginger catch theirs at around 8:30. And Lucy has afternoon kindergarten so she catches her bus after lunch. Then Carson comes home around 2:30 and all the other kids at around 3:30.

It was fun to hear about every one's day yesterday.

Carson(7th) was so happy when he got home. He has always adjusted well to new situations. He was probably a little happy because the other kids were still gone. Carson was also glad to tell me that "I" had homework and he didn't. Paperwork, BLAH!

Callie(6th) was excited to tell me about her wonderful teacher. She is excited to have a little more order in her life now.

George(4th) was quiet coming home but he went right to his little bit of homework he had. I have heard a lot of good things about his teacher this year. He always does so well.

Ginger(2nd) greeted me with a big hug as usual. She then walked home talking with the boy that lives next door, who happens to be in her class. Yeah, a boy! Our little social butterfly.

Running for the bus on the first day. We did much better this morning.

Liza gets to watch all the fun. We were working on the word "bus" yesterday. She got it out a couple times.

Our little kindergartner. She takes after her Aunt Gina by eating at a mellower pace, hence she is carrying her lunch with her while walking to the bus stop. She was so so so excited to start school.
