Firsts

Today was Brian's first day of first grade. He started at his new school, Williams Magnet. He loved it! I am so relieved.

It was also Emily's first day of Pre-K 4. I think maybe the jury is still out on whether or not she loved it. Maybe it was because it was too hot to play outside, or that she said she needed two sandwiches for lunch because she was still hungry. Or the fact that she didn't get enough sleep, and when I picked her up she had just recently fallen asleep on her rest mat, and she was grumpy when she woke up.


We celebrated our first day with ice cream from Baskin Robbins. Brian sure is like his mom...picks the same "safe" thing each time, Gold Medal Ribbon. Emily tried Cotton Candy, it was pink and purple, what more could a girl want? Danielle sampled some of both. And mommy got her usual, Butter Pecan, and Rocky Road on a sugar cone.

Brian's "theme" for the year is responsibility. I like that, we are going to work on that at home more too.
