Yesterday, S and H had their very first day of school at their new school. I drove them there and then walked them in the bike trail they'll use once we move to our new house. We found their classrooms quickly and off they went. As expected, S was excited and giggly and H was unsure and quiet. On the drive up there, the kids were talking about the new friends they would make, and I talked to them about how important it is to be a good friend. I even used the example of adults who talk about how their neighborhood or ward isn't very friendly, when really, isn't it just as much our responsibility to say hello and be friendly? I encouraged them to say hi to the kids in their class and try to get to know people.When I picked them up, both had great things to say and both had made new friends. Yeah!

yeah for first days of school! I can't wait until Monday for ours. H and S are so big. How did that happen?
So great! And adorable outfit on S. They both look awesome! Is T depressed not to be a school with the big kids?
Such a cute picture. When are you moving? Far? Will you still come to book club? (like I am one to talk about that :))
Great picture but it's making a little sick to my stomach. I know I'm ready to have a break from all the summer arguments that go on when every one is here day in and day out with little to no breaks but when I see your kids all dressed for school I immediately think "oh no ...will they be okay? Will kids be nice to them ?....oh school is such a double edged sword for me!!
