First Day of School 2010

I have to say, this is the first school year where I have been sad to see my kids off to school! I don't know if the years are going by faster & faster... but that was the shortest summer we have ever had! I felt like I was not ready for school to start and would have truly enjoyed a couple more weeks with the kids at home. They are just at such great ages and they are so self-efficient. But, they were excited to see their friends again and so I guess it was time.

Lauryn is a big 7th grader this year... Junior High! She just looked so grown up yesterday morning with her khaki pants & belt (7th & 8th grade get to wear khaki's instead of the navy blue they are all so sick of). I still remember when I started junior high... Boy, did I think I was grown up! Zach is in 5th grade this year & Sean is in 2nd grade. I say it every year, but time just flies by so fast.

So after I was finished taking all the kids pictures, Jim wanted to know why I never take one of him on the "first day of school"? So, had to post his first day too!
