First Day of First Grade

Today was Samuel's 1st day of 1st grade! He was pretty excited, but I think that he was also pretty nervous! I don't blame him since it is a new class, new teacher and mostly new classmates. Surprisingly, I had a harder time with this transition than I did with him going to kindergarten. Maybe it's because he's gone from 7:35-2:45 this year...that's a long day, or perhaps it's seeing my baby boy get on that BIG yellow school bus with all the older kids! His teacher, Mrs. Edwards, is a perfect match for Samuel's personality. She is very outgoing and bubbly and wants to make learning fun. I just know that we are going to have an awesome year! I still can't believe that he is already in 1st grade! Kindergarten and Summer just flew by! Here's to another great year!!

Samuel still not fully awake.

Enough Mom!!
