First Day of School

Caleb had his first day of 'real school' this week. He was so excited to go. He is in AM KINDERGARTEN and his teacher is MRS. LYNCH. He rode the bus for the first time today...and of course I came home and cried. They just grow up so fast...and all I could think about was my sweet baby is going to be around all the "evil" of the world...I hope I have taught him well...and I kept seeing him look back at me scared as he boarded the bus like "what do I do?". I am just grateful he goes half day & not full day....but then he comes home in the afternoon & fights with Carter & I can't wait for morning to come. Oh the craziness, but I love it....here are a few pics:

Don't leave me brother!

Brody wanting to go with Caleb, only 3 more years Brods...but who is counting??? lol

What a cute post. I can't believe Caleb is old enough to go to Kindergarten!! He looks like such a big boy! Love the shoes he is wearing. That is the cutest picture of Brody looking out at him leaving!

Wow, I cannot believe you have a kid in school. Time does fly!

He looks so cute in his Back-pack! I hope your life gets a little less hectic soon. I still can't get over how sweet Brinkley is. She's an angel. Loves.

Ahh how sweet. I can't believe he is already in school! How sad.. I think I would be bawling too. I have a hard time dropping Jd off at daycare.. I can't even think about school! Caleb is so sweet and Brody looks huge in that photo! Are our little guys really getting that big! :( Sad!

Oh they DO grow up too fast! Don't worry, I did the same thing...I cried! He will LOVE it, and you will adjust soon enough.

Those pics are too cute, i love the one of Brody watching out the window, priceless.

Oh and to answer your question, we are in Gilert. (The kids school)

I dread the day that Kadence starts "real school" Preschool is going to be hard enough for me. I agree they grow up WAY too fast.

Stewart and Julie Jensen said...

I can't believe your kids are in school already! You think its hard when they go to kindergarten, just wait until 1st grade! Just wait until he comes home and asks you what the "F" word is!! I told mine it was fart!

I can't believe Caleb is already old enough to go to school...so fun and so sad at the same time. Brinkley looks so cute in her blessing outfit. Now that I am back home, I can't wait for us to hang out. Thanks again for the diapers and razors...can never have enough of those things.

Unknown said...

Caleb looks so big! They are all so cute and Brinkley is a little angel. I am so sorry that Carter had to stay home sick and miss the party. It was pretty chaotic, but the kids had fun. I hope he feels better soon!
ps Cotton loves his football and hellicopter...thanks!

I LOVE first day of school pictures!! All dressed up and packed up and excited and nervous...It's crazy to think that we're old enough to be sending our own kids off to their first day of school. I'm sure your little guy is well prepared because he has great parents!
