First Day Of School-Sept. 2013

And they're off!  The kids' first day of school.  Everyone up early and were ready to go on time.  Nobody missed their bus which is always a good way to start off any school day.

Hannah is a Freshman up at the big HUHS.

The first day of 7th grade and Chey is either testing me or forgot what grade she is in, but I didn't notice, until now, that she is holding up 6 fingers to show us she is in 7th grade (?).

And 4th grade might be a long year for this guy if his teacher doesn't have a very good sense of humor.  I mean of all the nice shirts/clothes this boy has, he decides to wear this on the first day (?).

And they're they go!  All ready for school.  That is until I got a phone call from the bus (not sure whose phone was used).  A little girl forgot her violin.  Auntie Sara was going to take it to school for her only to find the bus was broke down two miles up the road.  It saved us a trip--just being able to give Chey her instrument, but the poor bus driver (and kids) breaking down on the first day!?!

Another phone call, this time from school, letting me know two children forgot their lunches at home.  That's when I told them they would have to take hot lunch (good luck with that!).  And this was all before school even started!  I can't wait to see what the rest of the day brings!  But if anything went smoothly in this household, nobody would know what to do.  It all adds to the things we remember about our first days.  To all, a happy first day of school to you!!!
