I guess I am old enough to have a Jr. High kid! What??!! Yes, Emily is in 7th grade! The 7th graders went to their first day on the Friday before everyone else. That way, only 7th graders were at the school. The 8th and 9th graders went on Monday and then they all went on Tuesday.
Emily was excited, but nervous. She got up early and got all ready. It was hard to eat anything for breakfast. Then, I said prayers with her and she started to walk to the bus stop. I could tell she was holding back tears and I reassured her that I felt the same way on the first day of Jr. High and cried as I walked to the bus stop. She had a good day and came home happy! She's doing really, really well and seems to be liking it - although there is a lot of swearing at the school. Argghh!
Kate, Lindsey & Jack were all excited to start school! I could eat them all up, they are so cute!
1st grade
3rd grade
5th grade
And this little one, was super excited to start preschool again. She had to wait about a week and a half after the other kids went, but it was well worth the wait and she's thrilled to be going Monday, Wednesday & Friday mornings.
Best of friends - so cute!

Jeannette your kids are so dang cute and grown up. They look so old in all of their school pictures!
They all look great. Jr. High was the worst! Don't blame her for feeling trepidatious at all.
Crazy to believe another school year has started! Emily is so pretty! I love Kate's legs in that first picture... Too cute!
They all look so cute. I love first day of school pictures.
Amazing. Can't believe how fast they are growing up. Junior High is a bit of a belly drop. I remember that time quite well. Everyone looked adorable on the first day of school!
