First Day 2010

Well we're there... Kent and I have 2 elementary school students.  Blake made it through Kindergarten and Chloe is excited about 4th grade. 

Blake has 27 kids in his class... WOW!  That's a lot of kindergartners in one room for 2 1/2 hours.  But, his teacher is confident that they'll manage and I pray Blake will too.  He (for once in his life) was actually pretty quiet.  There was a lot of activity and not a lot that was very familiar.  Its really different to be AT the school and not just picking up his sister. 

Chloe has about 23 kids in her class, but she feels OK about that.  She doesn't have any of her regular girlie friends, but I think it will force her reach out and make some more friends.  She is excited to have more homework (what's up with that?) and she likes the sound of more responsibility.  Lets see how long this lasts with soccer and piano too!  But I think she's up to the challenge.  She did go through 3 outfits last night though to end up with today's look- she looked great.  She even put on jewelry and let me fix her hair (which is unheard of). 

Here's to a new great year!  Can't believe my babies are so big.... wow!  Well more news to come on the puppy front (and we're having a little baby here this year part-time too).  Guess with my babies gone, I am needing my "baby fix".  Stay tuned for more!
