It's the FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!!! Emily was up before the sun getting ready and complaining of a stomach ache (nerves). She had to be at the bus stop at 7:29. She was carrying her Dad's old MSU backpack and feeling rather un-cool in it. Her outfit and hair looked cool, though. We took some pictures in front of the usual tree and away she went. Mom choked back a tear as she boarded the bus with the "big kids." Emily is starting 6th grade at Middle School.
I had to shake the boys awake, as usual. Calvin especially didn't want to get up. Finally they were up and excited. Backpacks ready, new shoes on...we were out the door. Poor Spencer was pretty upset that he doesn't start school until next Monday. Poor kid. He made some pretty convincing sad faces.
Daddy and I drove the boys to school. They posed for some pictures with the Smith sign, made some funny faces for me, and then Daddy and I walked them around back to their class lines. Calvin is starting 2nd grade and Christopher is starting 4th. Calvin was excited to see some old friends in his class this year. Christopher was playing it cool in his line. No kisses for Mom; just a little wave.
As Spencer, Cameron and I walked back to the car, I was a bit sad. Just them and me for a while. It will seem quiet!
