Trouble

Does he look like trouble?? I love this boy to pieces, but boy does he have us on our toes already. First day of school, not so good. Second day of school, not so good. He is having a tough time listening and following directions, and yesterday even hit a kid over the head with a book. Okay, so this is kind of funny but, yikes! I have already had phone calls from his teacher both days.

Here's hoping to a GOOD third day of school...

1st day of School...

...and no tears!! Jessica started High School (9th grade), Erika started 6th, and Kyle started Kindergarten. What a difference today was, compared to when the girls started last October. They are more confident and comfortable, and today was confirmation of that. Jessica jumped right out of the car when I pulled up to the high school and had a big smile on her face. She woke herself up this morning before I did, which is a huge shock. She told me she woke up really excited for the day ahead of her.

Erika is at the same school as last year, so it wasn't much of a change for her. One of her good friends ended up in the same class as her, so I think that helps! And Kyle, well, he has been so use to daycare/preschool this last year that it wasn't any bid deal for him. He was so excited and kept telling me he wanted to go to his "new school" with his cool spider man backpack. He marched right into his classroom, and went straight for his seat (which he remembered from meet the teacher night). I started to walk out of the class, and he yelled for me to give him a hug and a kiss, which I did...then he proceeded to show the girl across from him his backpack and all his goodies inside! No tears, no dragging kids into their classrooms, no pouty faces...all smiles! It was a good day! :)

UPDATE:

Here is what they looked like after their first day of school....a little tired. :)
