It's here, the first day of school. The day when the backpacks are still clean, the shoes are not scuffed, and the pencils don't have bite marks in them. Everything
begins again, and it is all shiny and new. Both of the kids started school today. Kaitlin is in third grade now-she thinks it feels weird, and wishes that she was still in second. I've told her it's because it's something new, and once she's used to it, it will be fine. She was excited to find out that two of her friends are in her class. A.J. is in preschool. He was a little disappointed that his friend Zach was not in his class anymore. Zach PCS'ed (that's Permanent Change of Station for you "civilian" folks, lol) this summer. He is excited to have his teacher Ms. Tabby again. In fact, there was a little meltdown last week, because we didn't think that he had gotten into Ms. Tabby's class. He was telling me today he has "lots of NEW friends now."

Enjoyed your stories this morning, Jenn! Thanks!
Love and blessings to you and yours,

Alandria started this week, too. She is doing surprisingly well and seems very excited about it. Although her shoes were NOT new and shiny the first day -- they were an old pair of slippers that she insisted on wearing :)
How can they be so big already!
Love,
Krista
