    1st Day of school

     



    Today was the first day of school for our oldest 2. Izzabelle is in 1st grade, and Clint is in Kindergarten. Our current youngest will be in pre school, but doesn't start until next Tuesday. As you can see in the pics, he was not too thrilled he couldn't go with them. I must be doing something right because they wanted to be taken to school in the Orange truck today.

    Don't you just love them when they're around that age?

    Yep, you gotta to wonder what they learn at school to turn them into those monsters, but, luckily, the bigger number grow up to be damn good citizens.

    Yup great age!

    "...and then they go and spoil it by growing into wilful smart-ass teenagers..."

    Yup have one of those too Johnboy.

    My 2 younger Grandkids love school and do well.....Cade not so much, although so far (the last 2 weeks) he's been doing better this year than last. Might have something to do with tying working on the Mustang to school grades and homework

    I did the same thing with Ian and it worked fairly well except that his writing looks like it's from a drunk break dancing chicken.

    Oh my, is that not the truth? Our three girls, all within a year of each other used to look like that, and I was chauffeur for two of them for the first six years of their school adventure; now, they're all fourteen and freshmen in high school, and they sure don't look like that anymore. Enjoy them while you can.

    Those are great days, still getting hugs and the whole works. Sounds like they didn't fall far from the tree, wanting their picture in front of the orange truck. Your going to make me dig out old photos here pretty quick.

    Well the first week went pretty good. All except Clint decided to wipe out on the play ground equipment. It earned him a trip to the ER. He escaped with some bruises on his rh cheek, and a cut in between his eye lid and eye brow that was able to be glued. We thought the youngest would be the accident man. Haha
