first grade


This boy has been so excited for school to start! He is going to a new school this year, and he has been anxious to meet all of his new friends. He's going to the Montessori Academy charter school, so far (3 days) he's loved it. But really, he's just excited that he gets two recesses and snacks.


He didn't realize he would have to wear uniforms this year, until that morning (I tend to spring things on my kids, probably not my best parenting). He wasn't so sure about wearing 'church pants' everyday, but we now know he can also wear shorts. So he doesn't mind.


He gets to ride to school with his Dad in the mornings, so he was pretty excited. Me and the girls miss him during the day, but we get by... we've been out shopping every day since he's been at school. I feel liberated going out with only 3 kids. I don't know why, Luke's far easier to take shopping than the little girls.

What a handsome kid you've got! I'm so so sooo jealous he's going to Montessori.... If we were billionaires, Ava would definitely be going... sadly, we're like hundredaires... on a good day! :)

Aww! He looks so cute on his first day of school. I'm interested to hear how you like the Montessori school.
