Thursday I sent my kids back to school. Lauren is at the high school this year and wasn't the least bit nervous about the first day. Her bus came at 6:30 and she was ready. She is happy with all of her teachers and should have a busy year. Tomorrow morning marks the beginning of early morning seminary. She's not very excited about that, and neither am I! Let's hope she can still be ready to go on time for a 6:00 a.m. class!
Mackenzie is a 6th grader and new to the Middle School. She was excited too, but also a little nervous. She has to get used to having a locker and manuevering through the hallways in the 5 minutes between class. She didn't get any of the teachers that Lauren had, although they all seemed nice when we met them. She is excited about band and wants to play the flute or clarinet. She was a little bummed that none of her friends were in her classes, but she makes friends easily.
Ashtyn was very excited to go to first grade. We found out who her teacher was and who was in her class earlier in the week and she was very disappointed that all of her close friends were in a different class together. She has already made new friends and sees the others on the playground. We have had her teacher before, so I know that she will learn a lot this year.

Sierra has been ready to go back to school since the day we got out for summer vacation! She loves Miss Cara and her friends! She just went to her class for an hour on Thursday, and when we left there were tears in her eyes. She wasn't ready to go! Friday she returned for the whole 3 hours and didn't even kiss me goodbye. Just jumped out of the van and was gone. When I picked her up later she was in tears again! No problem adjusting to school for her. She is extremely social and kept asking when it would be time to go and pick up her sisters.
And I enjoyed 3 hours of peace and quiet on Friday morning. Heavenly!

I swear, that's exactly the same thing that happened here. Oliver was super excited and had a great day, Spencer was happy, but bummed his best friends weren't in his classes, and Grace's 3 best friends are all together in a different class. So weird!
ps. You're on the ball, taking photos on the first day of school. Your girls are so pretty, btw. This is the first year I forgot. We'll get the 2nd week, 4th day of school photos.
Sierra has come so far! I know you must be so proud of her and how much she loves school this year since she had such a hard time at the beginning of last year. Your girls really are so beautiful, happy, fun girls. School is so exciting. We went in for kindergarten testing today and Zoey is chomping at the bit to get started!
Awesome start! you rock as a mom.
Beautiful girls, great first days! So exciting! I am glad to hear that they are all having fun at school, it definately makes it easier on mom.
And Way to Go Sierra! No more tears about going to school. I am so happy she loves it.
Your girls are all so pretty. Looks like it is going to be a good school year.
Your girls are beautiful! Have fun with high school and have a great school year. We are so excited to start on Thursday!
