First Day of School 2008

Today was the first day of school...2nd Grade!!!!!

N decided he wanted to ride with Daddy today so mom couldn't follow the bus up to school :(

I did take pictures of them in the front of the house before they left. Z was still sleeping so it wouldn't have worked to travel to school.

I have found that boys aren't very talkative about certain things. The day gets summarized pretty quickly but then throughout the day you can trick them into giving you more information.

He is pretty pumped about being able to stay with Dad after school and go to football practice. And Thursday's are almost as good as Fridays (game night) because he gets to eat dinner with the team.

It was so cute -- Last night on the way home from camp he was reviewing all of the paperwork we needed to send back in to his teacher and was taking it all pretty seriously. Now if I was to sit down with him and tell him the rules and all of the other info he wouldn't have listened but since he read it himself it had new meaning to him. He was such a big boy. I was very proud of him.
