On a rainy, dreary Monday, Nate started 5th grade! This was the only picture he allowed me to take and was preceded by "Mom, take the picture, I have to go." So we are officially there. Such a smart, handsome 5th grader! We love him so much and know he is going to do big things this year!
This one was ready for Kindergarten!
The teenager pose again...have mercy.
I don't think I can remember a first day of school when it rained. But here we were, leaving the house with raincoats!
She had no fear...
But I was crying big crocodile tears. I gave up on trying to hide it.
Because just a few short years ago, I was carrying her 10 month old self in my arms when we dropped this little bitty boy off at Kindergarten.
Lila, you are going to wow them all this year. I have finally stopped crying when I drop you off at school (it's only taken 2.5 weeks). I have tried hard to follow your lead in being a brave girl ready to take on the world. As you often tell me when I ask you if you know how to do something (like buy your own lunch)..."Mom, I will just figure it out." Yes you will sweet girl, because you are a smart, strong, and capable future leader. The world is lucky to have you.
