First Days of School

 Parker before we left for school, then when we actually got to school and he realized what was happening and then the picture from the end of the day. The pictures say it all.

 The kids were all pretty excited to start school this year. Elizabeth started preschool and it has been amazing!! She goes Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursdays from 9:00-11:00. The best part is that it is right next door. Our neighbor and her sister teach out of their house and I could not be happier with Lizzy's progress this year. Amazing!!
Parker started kindergarten this year. He was so excited the days leading up to it, but then when that day actually came he was terrified.  He cried, when I dropped him off and he had to get in line.  I did not see that coming. He only goes to school from 9:00-11:40.  When I came to pick him up, he could not have been happier. He had the best time and was so excited to go back the next day. I think his teacher, Mrs. Arenas had a ton to do with that. :)
Maggie started 3rd grade this year and it is ridiculous how much she has grown in the past year. She loves school and all things about it. She is my social butterfly, so school is the perfect place for her.  Every teacher adores her and her willingness to help where she can and that she is so nice to everyone. She loved her teacher Mrs. Millet.
David started 5th grade! Crazy...he's growing too fast. He is getting a lot more responsibilities at school and they are holding him accountable for so much more. He was not nearly as excited as the other kids about starting school this year. I guess he knew what was coming. He will survive 5th grade, which means I guess we will too.  He got 2 teachers this year, Mrs. Richards and Mr. Glover.
