Wow! All four of my babies had a "FIRST day of school" this year and we made it through all of THEM! YAAAHHHH!!!!
Crazy at it seems.....Summer started her Junior year, Weston started the 6th grade, Keaton his second year of pre-school and little Lily her first year of pre-school. I can't believe it -- really! They were all pretty excited and ready to start. They all looooved shopping for their new clothes and school supplies!
Summer Jay
Summer's first day was Monday, August 24th at Stansbury High School.
The morning started out great. She got up in time, got ready and looked beautiful as always. She ate breakfast and brushed her teeth, gathered her stuff and kissed me goodbye.
She headed out the door to her car to leave........
5 Seconds later, she busted back through the door almost in tears!! Her car had a dead battery!! She's now rushed for time and completely upset. I grab the keys to the red car and kiss her once more, telling her it'll be ok and have a good day, be careful, I love you!
She called me when she gets there, almost in tears again. =(
Her schedule and class room numbers are in HER car!!!!
She had just enough time to write them all down and get to class. Wheewww!!!
She ended up having a great first day!!
Weston H.
Weston's first day was also on Monday, August 24th. Originally, he would have started at the Grantsville Elementary School, but because of the recent fire, he started at the Grantsville Jr. High. He was both nervous and excited about this. He was mostly excited to have his own locker!!! Every year in the past I was able to walk in with him, get him to his desk, and take a few pictures. This year was different. It was the first year that he thought he was big enough to go in himself and that I should just take pictures from the car. =( =( Sad sad
He even ironed his own clothes before school and would NOT let me help him get ready. I guess those are all signs of him growing up.
Keaton Cody
Keaton started his school on Tuesday, Sept.1st. He would have started at the Willow Elementary, but because of the fire, he and Lily get to go to the big High School!! Keaton really isn't much of a big fan of school but he was super excited that he got to go to the High School and just really really wanted a locker!
He got ready without crying, but cried a little when we got to the classroom. =(
When I went to pick him up, he said that he had FUN and he was going to go again and not CRY!! I'm keeping my finger's crossed!!
Lilyan Jean
Lily went to her first day of school EVER on Monday, August 31st!
She LOOOOOVED it!!!
She got up, got ready, and put on her own shoes and backpack! She looked adorable!
We walked in the school and she went right into the classroom.
I can't believe how big she is getting and what cute things she says. She told me that she is a big girl and can take care of school all alone. =) Sooo Cute!
When I picked her up she said she helped the teachers, got a book for her backpack, and did her "homework"
I'm still not ready for the summer to be over and school to be in full swing. It's going to take some getting use to. I'm glad the first day's went as smoothly as they did!
