1st Day of School


















These are always very happy and very sad days for me. I love the excitement of school supplies, new teachers, old friends, new places, recess, ect. But I hate the fact that time is rushing past without a second thought. I think that having a disease that gives you the chance to view your mortality changes ones outlook on life. I know things that most 30 yr olds don't. And sometimes I hate that, while sometimes it is the coolest gift ever. I guess lots of things are like that. Today was a milestone for B, Junior High. I hope that it is the coolest experience and he is able to take advantage of the time and carefree life he has. Thought I'd post a few pics of both the kids this morning. Lexi was super excited until we got in the car and then her stomach starting hurting. You can see her carefree expressions turn to worry but I know by the time 1st recess is about to start she is going to be running the show. They sure are fun!

Awesome pictures!

My oldest will start 7th grade next week - my nerves are already on edge! I know this year will be different, like you said - junior high is a very different atmosphere - scary, if you want my opinion (but you didn't ask for it!!)

I can't believe your son is in Junior High, damn life flies by the moment they are born.

Love the pics!
