First Day of School! First Day of School!

Today started the school year for Harlee and Bodie. Harlee is now in 4th grade and Bodie is now in 1st grade. They were both so excited to see their friends and ride the bus and meet their teacher. Oh my goodness, could life get better than the first day of school?! I submit that it does not! We only had a couple of set backs. Harlee's bus never stopped to pick her up. Lucky the neighbor could take her with his little girl. They really encourage the kids to ride the bus the first day so that they know what bus to ride to and from school. That way they get the routine down good. The second set back was Jax's initial boredom. I wasn't too worried about how he would be when the kids left cause he us pretty good self entertaining himself. But it wasn't ten minutes after Bodie got on the bus that Jax was asking if he got to go to his friend Caleb's house cause Bodie got to go somewhere. He settled down after Dad promised to take him to Grandpa's house. I am sure he will be fine after a few days. He just needs to get use to the routine. Good news for me, NO tears this year. I was happy as a clam waving good bye to my kids. Even now, as I sit here typing, my house is SO quiet. Jax is down for a nap and I don't have anyone asking me to play the computer or if they can have a Popsicle. I could definitely get use to this REAL fast!

I enjoyed your updates. I'm glad that the kids were so excited for the first day of school. Hopefully it's a fun year for both of them. You did a great job on Sasha's hair. She looked really pretty. Jax was one handsome little man! He did a great job!
