First Day of School

It was the first day of Kindergarten for Calvin.  He rode the bus with Anna Elise this morning.  She let him sit by her.  When they got to school Anna showed him where his class was (it's her old class room and her old teacher) and took good care of him!  Calvin had a great time!  He said he was good.  He made some friends but doesn't know anybody's name.  He told me he played with the little boy who had a Transformer backpack and a dinosaur folder - so he is remembering the important stuff!  He came home in a good mood and after about a half hour told me he was ready to go back - right now!  He is excited for tomorrow. 
Anna Elise had her first day of first grade.  She loves school - she told us that 'first grade rocks'!  She enjoyed helping Calvin out and was glad to see a few familiar faces in her class from last year.  She did get blisters from her cute shoes and I had to bring her tennis shoes and socks half way through the day - but she still had fun.  I'm glad they had such a good day!
It's sad and exciting all at the same time to watch your kids grow up!

I'm glad Calvin and Anna Elise had a great first day of school. Big sisters can take good care of their brothers at times. Anna Elise's dress was very cute.
