1st Day Back to School

It's hard to believe that summer is over. Grace, Ethan, and Joey all started school today. The kids had a great morning. Ethan wore a brave face. When I left he was holding his teacher’s hand and his chin was quivering fast and furious. I told him to be brave and have a great day. He looked up (chin still quivering) and said, “I know. I will.” It was very sweet. When we left Ethan's school, Grace started to get butterflies. She told me, “I think I’m starting to feel a little like Ethan.” Once we got to the school she allowed me to walk her into the school and to her class. In the end, first grade was much easier than kindergarten (for me that is).
