First Day of School First Installment



It is so hard to believe that summer 08 is over already and today starts the school year 08-09. Where did the time go? We still had so many things we wanted to do! But one person who isn't sorry for the day today is Tici. She is totally excited to be starting Grade 2 today and going back to the school routine. (No, I don't think anything is wrong with her!!) This morning she was up bright and early, dressed in the new clothes she picked out the night before and is sitting down to start her morning with oatmeal and fresh blueberries, yum.



Once she is finished eating, she double checks her backpack and tries it on to be sure she can still stand up when she is wearing it! Darn thing is so heavy! But then she wants a picture showing she can carry the backpack and her piglet and still give a finger "2" sign. What a girl!



Bryson, on the other hand, is not happy at all about the start of school. Getting up at 7:30 REALLY cuts into the summer habit of sleeping till noon. He's definately not got his happy face on and his back pack consists of pen, 1 binder and a few sheets of paper. Hardly seems fair that 11th grade backpacks are so light!!




Once both kids are ready we load into the van. Usually I drive Tici and Bryson to school in the morning when I'm home and Tici takes the bus when I'm at work. She likes getting dropped off by mom best though...




Tici's teacher this year is Ms. Provost and many of her friends from 1st grade are in her class, but she has new friends to make too...
