On Wednesday, we went with Nathan to meet his new teacher, Mrs. Graff.
I think she's going to be a good teacher for him.
Here he is trying to find his mail box. It's probably hard to do with a cop standing over your shoulder. ;)
Mrs. Graff let younger siblings color if they wanted to. Claire JUMPED at the chance. She's loves to color.
She chose to give her masterpiece to this strange lady in the lunch room.
Claire was a soothsayer that day. Fa-REEEK-y!
Here are the kids today on their first day of school. Nathan is in 1st grade and Claire is 1st year pre-school.
Claire was so excited for school!!!
Here is Claire with Mrs. Poncelet (you're not anonymous anymore). =)
I was a little worried for Claire at the start of her school day. As we were getting ready to walk in, a parent came out of the school and said "There is a boy in there bawling his head off." CRAP! That was TOTALLY not what I needed. I thought Claire would be fine as long as everyone else was fine. She was so excited..until...we....got.....inside. She took one look at that kid and started crying. I took her over to read some books until she was comfortable - which didn't take long (thankfully). I told her I had to take Nathan to school and that I'd come right back to get her. What I meant was I'd be right back to get her...at 11:15....when school was done.
She was BEYOND excited to tell me about her day when I picked her up. She summed it up in one word: Awthume! = awesome (you've gotta say it with Claire's lisp though)
After taking Claire to school, Nathan's school was the next stop. We found Dawson and the boys friend, Kaden, right away. I think this picture is so cute of them!
Finally, the bell rang and it was time for Nathan to go find his teacher.
Lucky for him, not only did he get to the right spot - he was greeted by his BFF.
Natey said they didn't do much in school today. Starting last year, we asked him to tell us 3 things about his day in school. Today he couldn't come up with 3 because they just didn't do much. He seemed to have a good time though. I'm sure there will be some bad days here and there, but at least today he seemed to be ok.

And lovin' the cowboys shirt for the first day of school! We got Quintin a knock off (from korea) cowboys jersey with our last name on it ... but he won't wear it! He tells EVERYONE he loves the cowboys but he won't wear the shirt ... hopefully after watching a game or two, he will!!!
