Yep, it's that time of year again. "Back to school" is a phrase that still fills me with dread. Bowden, who is now a seasoned veteran entering second grade, was loose and relaxed, but Lucy was a tad apprehensive.
Poor goose.
Bowden tried to make her feel better with assurances that he would check in on her, but to no avail.
Here's Bowden with his teacher, Mrs. Chavez. We dropped Bowden off first in the hopes that some of his confidence would rub off on Lucy and help her ease into the chilly waters of a new school year.
But when we went to the Kindergarten class Lucy was still a bit clingy.
Here's Lucy with her teacher, Mrs. Longbrook. We know Mrs. Longbrook from church. Lucy's class is also chock full of kids from church, which is probably the only reason we were able to leave without a scene.
"Bye Mommy!"
Lucy with her friend, Sylvan.
Here's Jack with his pre-school teacher, Kathy Lewis, who Jack calls "Teacher Classy." We know Teacher Kathy from church as well. Jack is as happy as a pig in slop to be in pre-school. I think it makes him feel like a big kid- like Bowden and Lucy. Plus he loves being with the other kids. He has been walking around with his back pack for days talking about going to class. He is the most excited of the three I would have to say.
Above all, he loves his Spider Man water bottle that goes with his lunch box.

So much fun to share this first day at school with Bowden, Lucy, and Jack! Looks like it will be a great year for all of them. I have met Teacher Classy and I would say he got that right! What fun for him. Miles will enjoy being king of the house for a few hours each week!
With all due respect to your current unfortunate situation and with condolences for your injuries... I cannot wait to read your blog post about the dog incident and resulting collarbone break.
Also, Justin suggests you title the post "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time." Like the book :)
