Back to School

Today is the first day back to school. Sniff... sniff... It is hard to believe the Summer is over and they are back in school. Lindsey Kate is starting 1st grade and Heyward in the 3rd. It was nice to know, though, that they STILL want mom and dad to walk them to class the first day instead of dropping them off a block away - so no one will know who their parents are.

In the 3rd grade, they begin to switch classes. Heyward will have one teacher half the day for English, Spelling and Reading and another for Math, Science and Social Studies. WOW! Time flies. Her best friend Carrie is in her class and they get to sit together. She is SO excited!!

Here is a picture of them on the way in this morning. It appears that we are having a little bit of a bad hair day. I think it is because we went to sleep with partially damp hair. It will take us a few weeks to get adjusted to the school schedule. Thank goodness they are too young to be affected by Bad Hair days.

In addition to the regular school supplies, they are now required to take hand soap, boxes of Kleenex and Ziploc Bags - hence the Walmart Bags. When did our schools become so financially deprived, that the kids have to supply their own soap and kleenex?

Anyway, here's praying for a GREAT School year!
