With the sun rising, the girls embarked on their First Day of School 2012-13.
We have a 6th grader, 3rd grader and 1st grader this year.
Bus-time is 7:00 AM, almost exactly on the dot!
Cassie's kinda loaded today! One backpack full of school supplies, and the other packed with her Cross Country supplies. Water bottle - gatorade.... she's going to grow up and mature SO MUCH this year!
And bus-driver Trish greeted the girls with a smile.......and then a wave and smile to me for her own First Day of School picture :)
As for my own day-----woooooweeeeeee.
Crazy Chaos! LOL. But if it weren't, it wouldn't be the first day of school now, would it?!?! 8-)
The after-school routine has already come and gone; feeding/watering animals while I start dinner preparations; homework papers/projects on the table; and Cassie is off to one of her Cross Country meets. I feel bad neither Paul nor myself travelled to cheer her on tonight, but......it's just a bit too crazy to try to fit that in on the first day of school. Thankfully, she understands! I expect her phone call soon to pick her up; one nice thing about Cross Country meets: they don't go too late! :)
As for sleeping last night-----yup! T'was exactly as expected...toss-n-turn....toss-n-turn....
I want to believe tonight will be better. Crossing fingers.
Congratulations on the first day!! Tonight you will sleep better... I know I did.
ReplyDeleteI think we will all sleep better tonight. Oh--By the way everyone knows that Santa brings hormones to 6th graders for Christmas...so hold on it will be here soon!
ReplyDeleteLooks like everyone was very excited this morning, glad to hear nothing major happened, and keeping my fingers crossed that you get a great nights sleep tonight. Sweet Dreams!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful family you have...enjoy every chaotic minute!
ReplyDeleteYour girls all look beautiful! Hope they loved their first day! take a breath, things will settle back to the old routine soon.
ReplyDeleteDon't the girls look cute. I know how you felt on the night before you started. I was talking to Number One Son yesterday, who is about to start his first ever teaching job as a NQT (Newly Qualified Teacher) about how nervous he is. I was nervous before the start of a new school year throughout my teaching career, it never got any easier.
ReplyDeleteWay to get through it! Hope you sleep better tonight!
ReplyDeleteThe girls look Fabulous!!
ReplyDeleteAs for you, I hope you get some sleep!!!
Ah, first day is soooo exciting. I hope their day was great and they have a wonderful school year. You too! I hope you slept better last night.
