You may recall from reading earlier this summer that I’ve been counting down the days til school started up again since it ended in June! What can I say, having three kids in my face all day is not my strength. And yesterday I sent my big boy off to 2nd grade! He was just as ready as I was. He was super-cute, as you can see, and really excited. I was really proud of him because despite the fact that he and his two BFFs are all in separate classes (three 2nd grade classes, three pals, go figure!), he was cheerful and excited about his teacher and he had a great day.
Sophie doesn’t start school until next Monday, and she missed Joshua sooooo badly today. She told me at least three times, “I can’t wait for Joshua to get home!” and when he did get home she was all up in his biz-ness wanting to know what he did all day! It was pretty sweet. She missed her brother but she’s dying to start herself. Cute pics of that to come next week!
And even though I adore those big kids, I am looking forward to having 2.5 hours a day, 4 days a a week with my little guy. He deserves some mommy time, the poor neglected third child!
How did your kids’ first day of school go?
