First Day of School

Three years in a row
Yesterday was Kyle's first day of fifth grade. He has three different teachers and seems to like them all. He came home excited and did his homework right away!!! That's a good sign =) We have accomplished a huge feat in our family by staying in one place for three school years in a row! We are so happy Kyle gets to finish out elementary school in the same school he's been for the past two years!!!!

Grace tackles Preschool
Grace had her first day of preschool at a local church here in Chesapeake. I was a little worried because when talking about going to school she kept telling me not to leave her so I was prepared for the worst. But this morning she woke up and was very excited to fill her lunch box with goodies to take to school. Her good friend Benjamin is in her class so that helped ease her into a new environment.

While the Cats away
And so with brother and sister off to school, Bethany had the run of the house!!! Here you can see her enjoying her sister's coveted bicycle!!! She had a blast this morning having the house and mom all to herself!!!

My inexperience shines through

So I guess my last post shows my lack of experience in blogging. As you can see from the previous post, I can't seem to navigate this website to change symbols into letters. I have given up after an hour of trying to fix it....what I said in the post was not all that important anyway =) Just a summary of our summer.
I'll be posting pics of the kids first day of school tomorrow. Kyle's first day of 5th grade was today and he came home happy and excited for the new year. Grace has her first day of preschool tomorrow. I'm not sure who will cry more, her or myself! I'll let you know.
