1st day of school!

Here they are on their 1st day of school. Kayley started 8th grade, Jacob 4th grade and Grant 1st grade. They are all in school all day now. As I said to Eddie this morning after they were all gone....Do you hear that? He said hear what? My answer: Exactly! You hear nothing but peace and quiet! LOL! They all did very well. Jacob did his usual see ya Mom & Dad quick hug and kiss and ditched us. He was eager to see his teacher Mrs. Saedi and see who all was in his class. Grant did awesome. Eddie was sure we would have some tears. Not one was shed. We told him all his buddies were in his class but as soon as he saw his best buddy he was a happy camper. He told me this afternoon he really liked his teacher Mrs. Knight. He thought she was very nice...just like I told him. We left the boys school and went and dropped Kayley at Jr. High. Her last year there. Of course her Dad embarassed her and kept yelling out the window bye Kayley, bye! Isn't it a parents job to do that to your teenager? She came home not as happy. She was supposed to get her language arts teacher from last year and didn't, was supposed to be in Honors science and wasn't and was supposed to be able to get her elective as ASB or teacher's aide and it wasn't. So I have already contacted the student advisor to make some changes. I wasn't happy about the supply list they are requiring. I think it's a bit much but that's another rant for another day. All in all it was a great day!
