It came and went and I think I survived. Adam started first grade today and he loved every minute of it! His favorite parts-recess and lunch! So glad I am sending him away for those things. He raved about how good his lunch was. I had to remind him it was the same lunch he eats almost everyday here at home, but I guess it tasted better coming from a lunch box. That made me laugh.
He got up this morning and got his chores done and had his favorite breakfast of French toast, sausage, fruit, and apple juice. Then we took some pictures and loaded everyone up and headed off to school for our first day of first grade. And yes, I cried....
His own little desk. He loves it!
He was a happy boy when we picked him up this afternoon. He said he can't wait to go back tomorrow. Tessa and I don't feel the same way. We missed him today! Tessa told me a few times during the day, "I miss my brother." So sad! The girls and I met some neighborhood friends at the park this morning for a "Morning of Mourning". It was good to get together with everyone and have something to distract me. It didn't hurt that the park was across the street from the school:)
When Adam got home I had him fill out this paper. Another first day of school tradition.
We are glad that you love school so much Big Guy and hope you have a wonderful year of learning!
