Yesterday was the boys’ first day of school! Ethan started first grade and Ben kindergarten. I drove them and walked them to their rooms and of course we were a bit on the late side (a big change from how early we were on Ethan’s first day of kindergarten last year). I was pretty confident that Ben would have a good first day and I was right. He liked the new kids in his class and he was able to find some good friends from preschool on the playground at recess. Ethan had a better day than I feared but not quite as good as I’d have liked. He can be a stinker about school and say he doesn’t like it but then will talk about things that were good and new friends after. Ethan’s teacher seems so nice and I have been impressed with everything I have seen of her so far and I think she will be a good fit for him. After we dropped the boys off I took the girls to meet Jamie’s preschool teachers (preschool will start Tues) and then we went to the park with some of her school friends. We stayed ALL DAY at the park, well we stayed for what seemed like all day! We were there from about 11:00 until 2:40 when we had to go pick up the boys.

Ben was very happy he found a quarter when I picked him up!

Today I’m looking forward to picking up some tired but happy boys at 3pm. We will celebrate the first 2 day week of school with a lion cub cake that I am going to make in a little bit and then we have 2 birthday parties to attend this weekend.
